Score: 11

iReward is an app that was created for iOS users and which seeks to motivate users to reach certain goals. For this article, this app can be used to reinforce positive behaviors by using visual rewards.

Say you want your child to eat five pieces of fruit each day before they get a candy – you can do that. You’ll add a picture of the reward and mention exactly what needs to be done to get the candy.

This type of praise will help parents and educators deal with children that need the added motivation to do certain things and it works particularly well with special needs kids, given the comments left on the app.

The app costs $2.99.
