I got all the supplies and made sure I put in the effort to make it cute. She helped some and made a few of her own posters while I was working. Here's the final product. Can you tell she's excited?
We are now on day two and I cannot even explain the difference in her behavior, as well as her eating habits. She has been so anxious to do things she otherwise would have cried over. She eats all the food on her plate and just about begs to brush her teeth. She cried for just a minute before her shower this morning, but once I reminded her that she could get a sticker, her behavior immediately changed. I know this may not work forever, but it's definitely working now. And I'm enjoying every second with her instead of wanting to cry with her.
When she fills a row, she'll get a small prize. Then when she fills the entire poster, she gets to pick out a toy. To be honest though, she doesn't focus on the prizes, she's excited about every little sticker. I love it!! And her.
