Candle Ceremonies

As everyone knows, most children LOVE to blow out candles!

As a reward for good behavior have a special candle ceremony! Choose a candle that reminds your child of what he is working on, and name the ceremony, make it exciting for your child.

For example, if you and your child are working on getting better grades, you may decide to use an Apple scented candle (since children traditionally carried an apple to school for the teacher), and each time the child passes a milestone, whether it be getting all the answers right on his homework, getting a great grade on his test, or even understanding what was taught in class that day praise him for his accomplishment, light the candle, and let him blow it out!

Your child will love this. If you are working on getting the child to help out around the house you can use a Fresh Linen scented candle, and call it the Handy Helper's Special Candle. Of course, you might not like these scents, so feel free to pick your own, or let your child help you pick the scent, and let him help you decide on the name of the ceremony.
