I've read on a lot or articles/blogs/discussions that reward charts are actually not that good at promoting better behaviour. What's the thought behind this?
I was thinking of starting one for DD (2.5) to encourage specific better cooperation with a few things that we struggle with (getting changed in the morning/teeth brushing etc). So, if she does these things with no fuss she'll get a start and if she X amount of stars she'll get a small reward (new colouring book/kinder egg/magazine etc)
Would that be terrible? I wouldn't punish her by taking stars away, just acknowledge her good behaviour with stars.
