*If your child is on CICO:
-Stay positive and encouraging!
-Review and sign your child’s point sheet each day.
-If your child has met his or her goal, praise your child and recognize his/her efforts. Tell your child that you can see they are that proud of themselves as well!
*If your child did not meet his or her goal:
-Be supportive—let them know you believe in them and they can try again the next day. Help them brainstorm what they could change or do differently to reach their goal.
-Remember that CICO's intent is not to look for perfection! If they have met their goal (80%), then they have succeeded.
-Notice improvement and share it with your child.
