The disipline chart

Max has been really misbehaving lately so a friend of mine suggested doing a discipline chart. We put 5 things on the chart; getting dressed, brushing teeth, clearing his plate from the table, picking up toys and the big one, being nice to his brother. He gets an "X" for each thing he completes throughout the day and at the end of the day if he has all of his X's he gets a treat. I am really surprised at how well this is working. He has been a totally different child this week. He has been so nice to Micah and picking up toys without being asked. Daycare even commented on great he was with his brother and picking up after himself. I don't expect these results to last after the newness and excitement of the chart wear off but I'll take what I can get.
