To help Mac stay in his bed at night, we instituted a bedtime reward chart. For each night that he "goes right to sleep like a big boy with no crying and whining and no getting out of bed" he receives a sticker on the chart the next morning. The chart has worked like a charm! I usually let him choose his upcoming prize (something he wants causes him to work hard at going to sleep!), and for a prize this summer he chose to ride the train at The Landing. Remember that Mac is obsessed with Thomas and ALL things train :) When his chart was all filled up with eight stickers (amount varies from chart to chart), we headed down to claim his prize.
This turned into a family affair (making this prize a bit more expensive than most, especially considering we went at lunch time LOL)
Sam couldn't say no to a very sweet plea to get a balloon from Ronzo the Clown. Ronzo boasts being able to make anything you can think of. What did Mac pick? You guessed it...Thomas!
