Day 25 Earning Poker Chips

We started a new reward system. It's been a little challenging to get our children to do after school chores, so we started the poker chip challenge. Each day after school each child draws a chore to do around the house. A chore that takes 15-30 minutes to complete. After they complete the chore they get a buddy check from one of their siblings and then they can earn a chip. They can also earn the chips by keeping their rooms clean and doing dishes without argument. It's been working out so far! I have high hopes that it will work long term. They can earn items determined by them after a jar is full of chips thus helping them work together and helping eachto encourage each other. Love trying something new!
