My first motivation chart: the tool that motivates your little ones to grow

23 February, 2023

So each time your child successfully completes an important step in learning a new skill, give them a puzzle piece they can place in the right spot to see their progress in concrete terms. When the puzzle is complete, give your child a reward to congratulate them on all their efforts! As well as being a game for your child, the puzzle concept lets them clearly see how far they still have to go before they meet their challenge.

Learning to sleep alone in their own bed and potty training are two key stages in a child's development that can sometimes be a real challenge for parents, which is why we thought we'd help by creating this fun motivation chart that lets your child receive the positive reinforcement they need to reach the goals you'll set together.

One chart, two functions!

The little extra that our chart offers? Since we didn't want it to be forgotten once the challenge is finally met, we've included in the set colourful, playful magnetic shapes that your kids can arrange however they like on the blank side of the magnetic board. The surface can also be used for drawing with dry-erase markers!

Planning long hours on the road with your kids? Skip the traditional screens and use our chart instead! Here are three suggestions for ways to use it:

  • To motivate your kids to stay calm during the trip, give them a puzzle piece after each set period of time
  • Ask your little ones to create pictures using the magnetic shapes
  • Play “Draw Me a Picture” on the blank side of the board

So, ready to take on new milestones and have fun with your little ones?
