A Spoonful of Sugar - A Carrot, Not a Stick
Encouragement is not bribery, it's a reward and recognition of a job well done
When children are learning about responsibility, mastering a new skill or working to improve behavior it's important to provide positive encouragement. With behavior charts (star charts), kids get visual positive reinforcement. As they work toward a specific goal they can track their progress quickly by referring to the chart's time line reward stickers or check marks as symbols of their success.With a younger child, start with a potty training chart (or a target for little boys), progress to a bedtime chart or tooth brushing chart - a single task is enough.
For older children, chart or checklist daily tasks such as making the bed, brushing teeth, feeding a pet, taking out the trash or completing homework by a specified time.
Use checklists for fun events, too: develop party plans, wish lists, movie night suggestions, or design a chart to countdown to the next family vacation.

When I saw the title -- star charts for kids -- I was thinking as in horoscope or astrology. Positive reinforcement is such an important element in ALL of our lives -- start with kids and continue through adults and senior citizens to give us meaning and define our purpose.
