Thank you for your post and overall I think you are on the right track. Kids and adults enjoy getting rewards for doing something and many response favorable to positive reinforcement. However, I think rewards work well with some children if it’s immediate because they make the connection. If the reward is delay until they end of the week there is the potential a child would getting discourage. I would also like to point out that childhood obesity is more than food and exercise. There can be a psychological and/or physical condition that would need to be address. It was a pleasure reading your post, and we do need to find a solution the obesity in our country.
