Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from regular behavior charts?

This chart focuses only on positives - catching kids being good rather than tracking compliance with rules.

How often should I add stars?

Aim for 4-5 catches per day at first. The more you look for good behavior, the more you'll find!

What behaviors should I track?

Choose behaviors you want to see more of. Be specific and observable.

Should I tell my child when I add a star?

Yes! Immediate recognition reinforces the behavior. Say exactly what they did well.

What if my child only focuses on getting stars?

That's normal at first. Over time, the behaviors become habits and intrinsic motivation develops.
