Teaching Accountability through Donuts
Every day, Axel would have to earn a chocolate glazed munchkin donut for various behaviors. The first one was for being tough, which meant pushing through tiredness and sharing positive energy. The second one was for working hard, giving 100% effort always. The third one was for saying 'please' and 'thank you,' showing appreciation. The fourth one was for making it fun, understanding that it was his responsibility to have a good time. And the fifth one was a reminder that his parents loved him. This practice of earning donuts taught Axel accountability and the importance of certain behaviors.
