Sounds like easy-peasy, aye :)

I say no to (routine) rewards. The completion of the task, the praise and the sense of accomplishment is reward enough. I say reward them when they least expect it. I don't believe in the "you do well for exams, you get a treat" kind of reward.

kids...they thrive on routine eh? actually the schedule board's a really good idea. i'm trying to avoid giving rewards for every good behaviour though because i don't want Nuha to expect something in return all the time. what say you? any other inputs from your other readers are welcome too :)

Oh, the 'piat telinga' happens to Ajab too. It's a constant struggle but these methods make life just that little bit easier.

Hmmm ... can also be used as a time-out corner ya? Maybe we'll try that as well.
