At the end of every goal is the reward. It is very important that the goal and the reward be in balance. In other words, you don t want to promise a trip to Disney World for a 100 on a spelling test. It is important to recognize that very few individuals work without some sort of compensation. I bet you would look for another job.
Kids are no different.
The reward might be a special outing, just parent and child. A special prize might do the trick. I have known parents that used tokens that could be saved for a variety of treats. Please understand the rewards from goals should never take the place of the nice things parents do for their children. However, the lesson your child will learn from setting a goal, working toward it, and achieving it, is a lesson that can be duplicated throughout adulthood.
