KidCash uses traditional incentives and popular game mechanics to naturally encourage your young ones to want to make better choices, to become more independent and strive to be their best...all with less stress on your part. Here is a run down of what those incentives are and how you can use KidCash to achieve them with your young ones.
Demonstrate to your child that others around them also follow the same rules and incentives. This helps establish the structure you've set up as more trustworthy, meaningful, and powerful. Consistency in expectations and rewards from different caregivers and authority figures reinforces the importance of the system.
Whenever possible, draw parallels between the things your child is doing and how they apply in adult life. This approach helps them see the relevance of the lessons in their daily lives and in the future.
Demonstrate to your child how increasing knowledge and following rules personally affects your life, making each day easier and more manageable. Sharing your own experiences and emphasizing the benefits of learning and responsibility can motivate and encourage them to apply these lessons in their own lives.
Use everyday situations, such as driving, to explain how you avoid getting tickets yourself. For example, while driving, you can discuss how going too fast or not obeying traffic laws could result in a police officer issuing you a ticket. Explain to them the importance of avoiding such situations to prevent the loss of income for something that could easily be avoided. This practical example helps them understand the real-world consequences of certain actions.
