Contacts = cookies!

After class Thursday night it was obvious that I need to reward more for jumps and tunnels. Devon is volunteering contacts when I’m near them since we’ve been so focused on them and there are lots of cookie rewards. Clearly it’s important for her to continue with contact rewards. However, I now am going to remain neutral for her volunteering them versus constant rewarding!

Yep, been there, done that! You'll get it all worked out. In addition to not rewarding volunteered contacts, you might also think about 1. offering intermittent rewards for contacts (making the behavior more durable), and rewarding jumps and tunnels with higher value rewards than what you use for contacts.
