I recently found some really cool reward charts and use them as a feeding tool (go to my Pinterest board for ideas on printable reward charts). I usually tell my kid upfront she needs to do oral exercises and feeding. Once she finishes, then she gets the reward or treasure. However, sooner than later I found myself buying too many toys as treasures that were costing a fortune and really ended up forgotten and buried in one of her storage drawers.
So, I had to come up with a plan. I researched and found a cool answer in Oriental Trading. They have treasure chests...full of assorted toys for a reasonable price ($17) that can last months. You can also do your own treasure chest. Check some ideas on my Pinterest Board.
Motivation is key for feeding and kids can get bored. Throwing a curveball here and there can make a huge difference.
