Trips to Target use to include a walk down the toy isle and bringing something home. Noah always wanted to go to Target when I was going. Whoops! We had to put a stop to that and fast! I want to spoil Noah rotten but he needs to be appreciative and earn things.
The solution- we came up with the star chart.
Get dressed, earn a star
Make bed, earn a star
Clean up toys, earn a star
Brush teeth, earn a star
Flash me a smile, give me a hug and kiss, earn a star
Be a good boy, earn a star

Once the chart is full Noah can then pick out the toy of his choice. This week he chose another light saber, in green, like Yoda's.
I love the star chart- it's like bribing your kid but it is teaching them to be accountable and earn things.*********
On tap for the weekend I don't even care what goes down. I have Arrested Development and Modern Family to watch, I'm sure we will go swimming, and the only place I want to hit up is Tucano's, I've had some major cravings.

The star chart used to be a staple when I babysat kids- works every time!

YOURS, MINE AND OURS
I'm jealous of your waistline and all this eating and craving you have! But, my oh my, those do look fabulous! Have a piece of pineapple for me:)
Ha, Ha. I love that he earns a star for a smile or a kiss. We are such suckers as moms.
What a great way to help Noah to be accountable! Love the star Chart! And I am so proud of you for being so diligent with your blog. I have lost my passion. It seems to come and go. But I feel like I am missing important memories by not blogging as much. Good for you for staying current! I need to follow your example and get busy again! I am so excited for summer! And now I really want Tucanos....
