• Rewards are helpful as part of the process of reinforcing good routines and learning expected behaviours.
   

• The suggestion here is to not go overboard with rewards. Eventually when a child normally meets a reasonable expectation, a friendly smile, a firm thank you or a little affirming story will be enough to let your child know they are on track. With this in mind, use rewards wisely.
   

• Soft rewards ~ hard rewards ~ services ~ privileges ~ cumulative rewards.
