My boys are very good at getting their chores done and I don't have to get
after them much for not getting something done. Joe and I choose not to
give our children an allowance (we all work together to keep a nice home-
if they want money they can work for it in other ways). So we try to have
an award system here and there to give the daliy chore list a bit fun.
For some time now we have had a ticket system where each chore was worth
X amount of tickets, each ticket was worth 1 minute of video game time
during the school week. I found this cute Lotto Ticket idea and thought
it would be fun to do something new! You can adjust it to fit your needs.
first I made my cards and then cut them apart
than put a small piece of contact paper over the number
next mix a small amount of dish soap with silver metallic paint
paint over the contact paper-it took 3 coats and dries fast
Now you have your own Lotto Ticket-boys get to chose one after they are
finished with chores. They may collect their minutes or use them right away.
