Griffin and Kennedy were in the examination room waiting for a doctor to come in, so we had some time to kill. We brainstormed a list of what the kids called "tricks" and "treats" for the consequences jars. Here is what we came up with:
Tricks/Consequences
- No electronics--no movies, Gameboy, xbox
- Clean toilet
- Clean windows
- Unload diswasher
- First bath (my kids always argue about who has to take the first bath)
- Do a math sheet (teachers provided practice math sheets)
- Vacuum one room
- Empty wastebaskets
- Backyard poop patrol
- Go to bed 15 minutes early
Treats/Rewards
- Mini-date (alone time) with mom or dad
- Bite-sized candy
- Being able to eat first at the dinner table (I have *no* idea why this is special to them)
- Breakfast in bed
- Don't have to make bed in morning
- Bubbles in bath
- Stay up 15 minutes later
- Picking dinner menu
- Picking dessert
- A quarter
- Adding a "mercy" card to the consequence jar
- Holding the leash when walking Coconut
What are yours? I'm looking for ideas!
