I discussed it with him this weekend and he was super excited.  Together we made up a chart, some goals (out the door with no fussing and in the car by 8am), and some rewards (watch a movie, date with mom or dad, trip to the science museum, etc.)  The deal is if he gets all five stickers in a week he&#8217;ll get to choose a reward on the weekend.  He has been talking about this since Saturday and was out the door bright and early Monday and today.  It&#8217;s awesome, so far!  I know it won&#8217;t last forever, but I&#8217;m hoping it will at least last long enough to put an end to his whining about school habit.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4266\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/img_0425.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4266\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4266\" title=\"sticker chart\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/img_0425-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"sticker chart\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/img_0425-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/img_0425-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4266\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">He hung it on his door and asks me each morning if he can put a sticker on the chart.
