Lo is too young for bribes and she only has snacks at snack time. But I do threaten. For example, she will randomly sit down when were walking and ill tell her to stand and walk. When she doesn't I say ok, but if you don't walk mommy will have to pick you up and carry you. And she gets up every time. It's not an empty threat though at least.

I try not to reward behavior with food, because my son doesn't eat a lot at his meals as it is.

I do "threaten" but I do it in a way he can understand, using clear actions that he must follow and a clear consequence. As an example, in a situation where he won't hold my hand, I give him until the count of three to come back or he must sit in the stroller. It works.

As for bribing, there is nothing that I could use that my son would want, I've thought about it, lol.
