Each kid has a Kid page, accessible by clicking their name on the sidebar.

The kid's page shows expectations, rewards, and consequences (if enabled) specific to that kid.

Rewards can only be redeemed if the kid has enough points.

Theory and Example Usage

Use Kid Points as motivation for completing tasks or behaving certain ways.

For example, give points for completing chores around the house or showing exemplary character. Then, let them redeem the points for a reward such as screen time, desert, or special activities.

Use the points system to keep track of anything else you like. Be creative.
