    I meant anything that is her "bliss" A bike ride is one of Rianna's favourite rewards, or stopping at the park for a swing on the way home, story time, a game of catch when you get home.
    I agree Kelly, changing the place is the ideal too, i start to wind up whatever Im doing to take them home ( or to the park) But sometimes I HAVE to go to the supermarket with tired, want to get home kids, as my wake time, between work and sleep is limited 3 days a week, and when you are out of milk.......
    I agree food shouldnt always be seen as a reward, it does lead to bad habits, unfortunately that is the way I was raised, and sometimes comes too naturally.

    But big big praise from mummy ( I am sooooo proud of you ) does work, just not if overtired, or emotionally drained is on the menu
