Lying down while doing nebs

Your ideas are great! Nicole, I love the sticker idea, I think she is very used to following instruction and getting her involved in a fun way is important. i never want to turn VEST/neb time into something she dreads or resents me for. THe sticker reward system is a good idea. And yes, my house is FULL of toys, usually we weed them out and donate them to charity after a while. Off topic a little bit; You guys inspire me, the other day I thought Maggie could start being responsible for carrying her enzymes when we go to the store. I dug out a very small purse put her enzymes in it and told her she needed to take care of her enzymes while we were out. At the grocery store, she wanted a snack, asked how many enzymes I thought she needed for the snack and then proceeded to open her purse, pour out the enzymes and take the herself before snack. I was so proud.

I Love the sticker idea tht Marjolein mentioned also. Or maybe she could play a certain favorite board game only at neb time ( she'd have to sit up for that) or color in a favorite coloring book. I kind of do that with walking on my treadmill. I have a cd player next to it and only listen to certain favorite cd's while on the treadmill. Gives me the incentive to walk on it more when i want to hear one of those cd's. I guess its kind of like a reward thing. You look forward to doing it when its made more fun.
