A Much Deserved Train Ride



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.

 Getting ready to ride the train!!!!!

This turned into a family affair (making this prize a bit more expensive than most, especially considering we went at lunch time LOL)

Drew in mid-wave.  He has had no choice but to also like trains :)

"Ooh"

He picked the caboose to ride in.

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!

"Choo, choo"
