The teachers at Ellie's preschool are using a reward system for good behavior. After about two weeks of helping the kids learn the system the teachers rewarded those who have been behaving well. Ellie was one of them. She was rewarded with a trip to treasure land. Ellie picked an item for nans and one for pa. I love that this was a reward for her, but she wanted to get something for someone else. She is the sweetest.
We have been spending quite a bit of time trying to curb Ellie's drive to be first at everything. I appreciate her motivation and hope that she continues to have some of this drive as she gets older, but at this point always being first doesn't fly in preschool. After her visit to treasure land a note came home from one of her teachers that after her treasure trip she was heard saying, "I'll always be second so that I can go to treasure land again."
