To help him read more I made him a reading chart. I had no idea what we would do when it was full and surprisingly he never asking what we'd do when he finished it. So the day came that he had 1 book left to finish the chart (and he still hadn't asked what the reward was). He'd been asking for a few weeks to go get a frosty for a treat, so that's what we did. We needed dinner that night and dad had a free hour, so we met at Wendy's for dinner and a frosty reward.
Ammon was really cute when it came time to get his frosty. He took his chart with him up to the counter to tell them why we were getting a frosty. But when we got up there, he froze and didn't want to show them the chart. So I showed it off. The lady taking our order was so nice and asked him questions about what books he read and if he liked to read.
When we got home we made another reading chart. This one with more books needing to be read to get the rewards, and this reward is bigger. Cold Stone with a parent.

That's a great idea! You can tell he's so proud of his accomplishment. I like the next reward. Nice when the parents get to benifit too, right?
