The Childzilla Philosophy
The idea is simple: Catch your child in the act of being good and reward them for it! While this may seem like a
simple idea, it is actually a recognized and effective child behavioural management principle based on years of
professional research and testing. It's called "Positive Reinforcement."
While most parents understand the idea of "consequences" for bad behaviour, the "rewards" for good behaviour are
often forgotten. Childzilla is designed to help you say "Great Job" to your kids.
Rewards don't have to be big to work. Something as simple as a gold star can be very effective, especially if
those gold stars can be accumulated and applied to something your child wants. Consider rewards such as a "sleep
over night," "a trip to the ice cream stand," or "an extra half-hour TV time". However, it's important to note
that it's not the size of the reward that counts. It's really about recognizing the good in your child and
rewarding them with positive reinforcement.
Rewards are nice, but actually saying "good job" is vital. That is why Childzilla includes the ability to add
your "comments" to their page. Imagine your children's smiles and sense of pride when they check their own web
page for your comments and they see the words "WOW! Great Job!" Of course, don't forget to tell them and give
them a hug too!
Childzilla believes you should choose the type of reward system appropriate for your child. That is why we have
made the site easy to customize according to your needs. You can create your own rewards or use our convenient
"rewards store" to include more tangible rewards.
Childzilla also believes your child should be included in tracking his or her progress and in setting up the
rewards system. That is why we have designed your child’s page to include a "rewards wish list." Of course,
rewards are always your decision. However, we believe this process gives your child a sense of empowerment and
helps them develop the discipline required to obtain the tangible things they desire – an important life skill.
We are parents just like you. And our goal is your goal: To raise our children to respect others, work hard,
learn new things, take pride in their accomplishments, and enjoy life. Childzilla is a great tool you can use
to create an environment of positive reinforcement and teach your children the benefits of cooperation and good
behaviour.
