I usually end up cleaning my girls' room four times a day, and at bedtime, it is messy again. We're not even mentioning the other rooms. I have always wondered how some women manage to keep a pristine home when they have two or three small children.
This week, I'm starting a new sticker reward program for my children. They will receive 3 stickers a day for
- making their beds in the morning
- putting things away when they are done using them
- having a clean room at bedtime
There will be one more opening for extra effort, which could take the place of a missing sticker elsewhere.
At the end of each week, if they have earned all of their stickers, they will receive a small prize. At the end of each month, they will be able to earn a bigger prize.
The sticker reward system has worked very well for us in the past and I have high hopes for this project.
If you have a particular method that has worked well for you, please share it in the comments section.
