How do you reward and praise your children when he/she`s good?

Question

Thanks for sharing!

Answer 1

Praise should be a part of childhood development. It's not just when they are good.

I believe that verbal affirmation of a job well done should be enough. I am not in favor of 'buying rewards'.

Depending upon the age of the child, possibly staying up an extra 30 minutes, a extra cookie. You know your child best and how to reward he/she.

Answer 2

Kisses and cuddles, and I tell him that he's such a good boy and praise him.

Answer 3

give them toys just reward them and say i love you so much

Answer 4

Stickers, small dollar toy from the dollar store, quarters for their piggy bank (they like to save up for other toys), take them out for icecream or their favorite fast food place, alone time with me or a person of their choice (they usually want to play a game or something, they both love going golfing with my stepdad), go to local fairs or something like that, extra 30 minutes of Tv time.....

Answer 5

If he or she is a toddler or something you can go "Yay!  You did it!"  My mom used to do that to my little sister.  You can also just give them one thing that they want.  I'd only go with one thing at a time because you won't want to have them get the idea that they can do whatever little thing that's good and get lots of things for it.  Getting lots of things for them is for special occasions like birthdays and Christmas.

Answer 6

Depends on the age of the child.  In general though, praise the activity done and say how proud you are of the child.  Don't overdo it though because you don't want them to a) only do good for the rewards and b) become so use to the reward that it does not matter.

I would not personally reward with a material good unless they graduated high school/college, a special dinner for a big or important to them thing thing.  

Answer 7

a hug and a high 5 most of the time works just letting them know you care is most important being involved with them take them to the park or on a picnic . Its the simple things in life that matters

Answer 9

i take her to the mall and buy her what she wants,but not too expensive.i tell her she really made me so proud of her.that i love her so much because she made us so happy.

Answer 10

Hmm, I have a seventeen month old, so praising her for picking a toy up, handing me something, or just learning something new, I say good, thanks, and you're learning so good.  I might give her a big  hug.  When she gets older, I might give her an allowance, but I don't think I will make such a big deal about doing what she should do.  I think it teaches kids to expect things, and when you are an adult, the reward for let's say, cleaning, or gardening/mowing your lawn, is the feeling you get that it's done and looks great.
