This idea was stolen from my friend Emily who has a
fantastic blog, I love this girl.
So, as many of you may know I do a prize bucket with the kids. They can earn something out of the bucket if they obtain 10 ice cream scoops.
They can earn a scoop for completing their chores,
helping mom out,
good behavior at school & sports,
you get the idea.
Pretty much for anything.
Some of the prizes include a trip to Baskin Robbins (a favorite)
Stickers,
candy,
toys,
crap from the dollar store I don't feel bad throwing away after,
etc.
And this has been working quite well I must say.
All I have to do is threaten or bribe ice cream scoops and they shape up rather quickly. I love it. They love it.
What kid doesn’t like prizes? And who doesn’t like to be incentivized?

I am so glad that this is working for you! WE love it too. Summer is so much easier with them trying to be helpful!
