Hello. My name is Elizabeth and one thing that I struggled with starting out was finding good privileges for my little one. I have now figured out LOTS to do including seasonal and non-seasonal ones I could do. You can exchange the word mommy with daddy. This is just my personal list that I use to keep my little one in line. I thought I would share my list so if someone else is struggling with privileges to come up with this might help them. Let me know what you think!(:
******NONSEASONAL****
-coloring with mommy
-playing with play dough
- Good morning texts to wake up to telling me how important and loved I am
- Good night texts to see before I fall asleep that remind me there is no place you would rather be than with me
- Random thinking of you texts that help to keep me little throughout the day; remind me that I am your princess, baby girl, little one, and/or kitten - remind me that I am irreplaceable
- Genuine praise over the pictures I slave, but also enjoy to color for you (Not just an, “Oh, that’s nice” or “I like it” - this leads me to believe you either don’t like it, or don’t care)
- Small surprises - whether it’s my favorite little space snack (frosted animal crackers), food from my favorite place (McDonald’s), my favorite flower (peonies), or something little like a sippy cup or a new paci
- Consistent, but not constant attention
-playing with toys.
- Affection and physical touch; a pat on the head or a kiss on my forehead not only lets me feel your complete ownership over my mind, body, and soul, but also signifies your approval of my actions which is what I seek above all else
- And of course, stuffies, every little, ageplayer or not, requires stuffies. To hold, to play with, to sleep with - especially when mommys not around
- Watch anime together - Play video games together, this could be one plays while the other guides or playing in multiplayer
- Read together, stop after every chapter and discuss the book or manga - If either has homework, do it together and help each other out - Look up cute cosplays to do, it doesn’t mean you’ll do them but it’ll be fun -Watch twitch or YouTube gamers together - Play and teach each other trading card games. -Talk about space for a while. -Watch dorky movies, or old movies, and point out the obvious green screen and other visual enhancements - Go out somewhere just to lay back and look at the sky together, at night
