✨ Behavior Tip Tuesday! ✨

Today’s tip: Reinforce the behavior immediately! 💥

When a child shows the behavior you want to see (sharing, using kind words, following directions) respond right away. The quicker the reinforcement, the stronger the connection they’ll make between their action and your praise or reward! 💬👏

⏱️ Why it matters:�Kids learn best when the feedback is instant. Waiting too long can make it harder for them to understand what behavior earned the positive attention.

💡Try this:�Catch the behavior in the moment and say,�👉 “I love how you followed directions so quickly!” or�👉 “You shared your toy so nicely! Great job!”

Consistency + immediacy = stronger positive behaviors! 💪
