M&S Star charts - look like advent calenders, with chocolate

Just thought I would tell everyone about these as I haven't come across them before yesterday. It was my mum who say them and brought one over for us - mainly to show us.

They look like an advent calender and have 20 windows on the front. Mum saw two designs - Barbie and Pooh Bear. Inside the windows are milk chocolate stars. Also comes with 20 gold stars too. Has comments on like "Every day you are good win a chocolate and a gold star".

On reverse are a selection of 20 "good deeds" as ideas. Tnhings like

  • I have been very good today
  • I have tidied my room
  • I have my bed
  • I have been helpful

etc...

I know some people don't believe in using chocolate/sweets, but for some people I think these may be good.

I'd have found it useful for potty training.

Anyway, just thought I'd tell people about them as we haven't seenanything similar before.

I've had one for 6 weeks now in an effort to get ds to poo on the toilet or potty and not in his pants. Guess what all the flaming chocolate are still there. I think I have now tried every star chart and form of bribery going but nothing seems to work!!!! Can you tell I'm at my wits end with this one. Yesterday when he pooed his pants I just wanted to curl up in a corner and cry!!!!!
