  • Hug
  • Tickle
  • Kiss
  • High five
  • Fist bump
  • Hold the child
  • Thumbs up

5.Finally, praise needs to be relevant to what the child does. As the difficulty of the task increases, the praise should become better and more sincere.

Say “good/not bad” when the child does well;

“Wow, that’s great!” and hug him when the child does well.
