Godly Habits


We started a new reward/incentive program with Katie & Alex. About a month ago, we started to give them a punch on their "Godly Habits" card whenever we "caught" them doing something good. They would get a punch for eating their meals well (without us nagging them!), helping us around the house or anywhere else when asked, being nice to each other (that is a BIGGIE!), using their manners, going to bed good, no complaining, etc. We decided to use this strictly as a reward program and have found a lot of success with it. We also have a card for their schoolwork. Once their cards are filled up, they will get a special treat (tea party with Daddy, special outing for Ice Cream, trip to Family Museum). They will get an EXTRA special treat this next week with the completion of their first card...They will get to go to their first "in the theater movie"...Veggie Tales! They are so excited!
