Implementing a reward system at home can keep your child determined and fulfilled. Whether it\u2019s for doing chores, finishing at home learning activities<\/a>, or completing a Kumon Level, recognizing your child\u2019s success plays a big role in their enthusiasm and motivation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Maintaining a reward system is an ongoing process that requires accountability and consistency from both the parent and child. Below are a few steps to get started with an engaging reward system at home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Set Objectives<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Work with your child to identify weekly goals. Outline tasks and determine the learning priorities of the week. Break them down into daily goals to make achievable for your child. Transfer the designated tasks into a reward system and place the chart in a visible location like the fridge or in your child\u2019s room.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Words of Encouragement<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Use positive statements to support your child in accomplishing their tasks. Reinforce the importance of the task and cheer your child on when they try. Be sure to reward your child once they complete a task.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Keep Record<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Track your child\u2019s daily progress for each task. If you are using our At Home Reward System, you can list out the tasks on the left and make a note of daily achievements by placing a sticker, smiley face, checkmark, or another symbol that your child may like.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Reward Your Child<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once your child has shown daily progress, it\u2019s important to reward them with a prize or a token of recognition.<\/p>\n
