We started something new with the girls a while back and it's working great. They each have a little plastic jar that I decorated with their name on it, and I have a much bigger jar with lots of beads in it. They each have a list of chores and when they do one of their chores they get a bead to put in their jar. If they do something good that isn't on their list they either get a larger bead, or more than one bead. It just kinda depends on what they did. If they get into trouble at home they get time out, but if they get into trouble away from home they lose a bead (or several if it was really bad). When they fill up their jar they get to choose a reward: going to the movies, going out to eat with just mama or daddy, getting her nails done at the salon, or just $5 cash, whatever they want within reason. So far it's been working great and it's been about two months.Mama Sweettaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11379000377016418229noreply@blogger.com
