The main strength of a sticker chart is that your child feels your positive encouragement. The effect may be very subtle but he will try his best to do well.

To give your applause and cheers just that extra bit of power
... a simple set of cute & cool stickers is all you need.

Or you could even treat your kid to a funny drawing in the sticker spot as a reward ...

3. How to use the sticker chart

Working with a sticker chart to guide and correct your toddler sleep habits is very easy.

• First, a couple of days before you start, patiently explain to your child what you want him to do, for example not hop out of bed after bedtime. Do this a couple of times so it is nicely clear what you expect.

• Show him/her the chart and the stickers, explaining that he/she can stick a sticker each morning after a good night. Decide on a start day together and put the chart in a place where you all see it every morning (near the breakfast table?).

• Then, after a good night: applause and time to stick a sticker! If it didn't go well, then no sticker but don't give it too much attention either. Just a casual "next time will be better" and that's it.

Play it by ear and be flexible enough to award a sticker even it wasn't perfect but if he/she tried hard ...

At what age can you start using a sticker reward chart? There is no single 'right age'. All depends on your child's personality and whether you can tickle his interest in the chart and stickers.

18 months can be old enough to give it a try - never underestimate your little cutie ...!

Or you may have more success if you wait until 2 years old. And after that, at 3, 4, 5 years old and above a cool sticker reward chart can work wonders. For example, it's one of the most successful bedwetting solutions.

In which situations can you use a sticker chart? Any situation where you want to encourage your child to behave correctly in order to sleep better, and to keep peace and quiet for the whole family during the night.

Staying in bed/bedroom after bedtime, not shouting out for you in the middle of the night, not playing in bed, waking up siblings, not crying when losing the pacifier (encourage finding and putting it back alone), ...

Good luck!
