I used this for my daughter when we were potty training.  She is 3.3 now and pretty much completely potty trained.  Aside from night wetting, but we wear goodnights. 

Stickers alone didn't really do it for her so much, she needed a reward system.  You'll have to see what works best for yours. 

I would write the days of the week along the left column, drawing a line under each day all the way across the page.  Whichever day it was.. when she went potty she would put one sticker next to the day of the week.  We had however many stickers beside whatever day we were on.  When she got to 5 stickers, she got a reward.  First it was a small treat like a gummy bear.  Then when I noticed it was losing it's effectiveness I went to the dollar store and bought many dollar items, and she got to pick one surprise from the bag.  Then I had to up it again, so after 7 stickers she got to pick either a computer game or a treat.  Eventually it phased itself out and she just started doing it on her own.   I used the days of the week too because it also helps with learning the days.  There are many different methods, and you could adapt this to get him to do his daily chores/tasks.

Maybe list the tasks on the left column and if he completes it. he puts a sticker by it.  After so many stickers, a reward or even just the sticker if that is enough for him to be reinforced.  Good luck.  This is the age where they become contrary and need positive reinforcement.

Hi,

When my son was 2.5 i used stickers as a way of toilet training him. I didn't use a chart because he wanted the stickers on his hand. This is the way his chilcare centre was doing it. For a wee in the toilet/potty he got 1 sticker and for a poo he got 3 stickers.

I think reward charts are a great thing and stickers are so cheap.

Hope this helps,

I found stickers were great at curing all manner of bad habits in my DD1, but at 2.5 she didnt want them on the chart, she wanted to carry them around the house or stick them on her chest. Other kids I know just arent bothered about stickers until much older though. I did it pretty much like you are planning once she wanted the whole chart thing. But in the early days just having a STICKER was so wonderful for her LOL! Good luck, I hope your DS is susceptible to them already!

We have always had success with this.  When E was young I made them and usually they lasted about a week before the behaviour chosen was cracked. 

A couple of years ago I bought a magnetic chart from ELC and this we use for things that we both struggle with like brushing her hair daily and keeping it pretty (she is very sensitive and if it gets too knotty this can be an ordeal for us both), making her bed, getting clothes ready for school the next day and so on. 

Peace

They have worked for me in the past I think they get more excited about getting the stars then a treat at that age. Give it a try kids at that age are pretty smart they take so much in.

hi i use them with my 2 year old and they work a treat she gets a sticker whenever she does something she was told to do whenever she goes to the potty etc

and when her sticker chart is full thats when i buy her a special treat

hope this helps
