I wanted to do something with the girls that would encourage them to do things more willingly, and to be more aware of their attitudes. I decided to start a money program using fake money and giving it out to the girls when I saw that they were doing things that I felt deserved some positive reinforcement. playing nicely together, cleaning up their messes, SHARING....... We've done it for two weeks now and so far I like the results. I need to probably reinforce a little more often to try and get the positive mode going. When they've earned $100 they get to buy something from My Store. I put together a box full of misc items and toys from the dollar store. Megan picked out a jump rope. It took Ali 20 minutes to decide what she wanted to buy. It was really funny to see so much turmoil making a decision between swimming goggles and index cards.. Who knew index cards were such a hot comadate?

I love these ideas, but don't love the follow through. I am so bad with the follow through.
What a great idea. You are so creative! I'm totally coming to you for advice because I was born without the creative gene.
My mom used to do that when I was little. I think it's a great idea! Glad it's working!
