i used to clap my hands plus some cheerings like "good job, good girl, wonderful"....
but now i say my praise in more detail, like "you put your sippy cup back to the original place, how wonderful" or "you are trying to put on your socks, it must be hard but it's great that you try".
immediately, i could see the difference. she insists to put her sippy cup back even without my order, and try to put on her socks all the time by herself.
