What is the definitive guide to goal setting with kids by Hilary Erickson?

I don't have a definitive guide to goal setting with kids, but I can share some insights from my conversation with Camille Walker from My Mommy Style. We discussed the importance of setting goals with kids and how to motivate them.

One approach is to have weekly meetings with your kids to discuss their goals. These goals can be behavioral or skill-based. For example, a behavioral goal for a younger child could be to use a kind voice more often, while an older child might set a goal to practice a particular skill, like playing the piano or developing entrepreneurial ideas.

It's also important to remember that the reward system for achieving these goals can change as kids grow older. What motivates a three-year-old might not motivate an 11-year-old. For instance, screen time can be a big reward for older kids.

Remember, the goal is to help kids become self-motivated and excited about their goals. It's not about what we as parents want for them, but what they want for themselves.
