Sidenote: I already have a “Good Job!” Jar that we fill up with marbles. Each child has a color of marble (blue, green, purple). Once the jar is full, we go as a family and do something special (the zoo, park, swimming, get shakes..) We then empty the jar and start all over again (note: it’s important to “pick” what activity the family will be doing when starting with the empty jar. This keeps it from being “vague” and keeps them motivated). When they complete all their chores for the morning, they get a marble. Likewise the rest of the day. When they do something worth rewarding, they get a marble. I can also “take away” marbles for bad behavior. It’s been great and versatile – one child kept getting out of bed at night. We told him if he stayed in his bed all night, he’d get 3 marbles. Worked great! I even used this while potty training…a marble every time a successful trip was made. I love how this involves everyone working together as a team. (I’ve given myself some marbles at times!) We DO make special recognition if one child has by far the most marbles…sometimes others put in more work and deserve special recognition. This could be as simple as a special sticker on their chore jar, or a small toy, special outing with mom or dad. Whatever you feel is best.
