This week we started "responsibilty charts" with the kids. I bought on Amazon and they got great reviews. And they are about 10 bucks cheaper then the teacher store. I put the extra magnets in the cabinet. But, you get about 30 responsibilities to pick from and a ton of smiley faces. They get magnets each day for doing the task then at the end of the day I convert to marbles. Well they are not marbles ( could not find in the store). They are those glass beads for home decorating. They are trying to fill up the jar for a very special outing they picked out. The kids are responding really well to this and love doing a great job! I have both kids making their bed. Amelia is setting the table and Baron is clearing it. Both kids are getting dressed in the morning without being told. Amelia needs some help. Baron has to clean his room ( which he is really good at), and Amelia has to pick up her toys. On top of those things they have things like keep hands to yourself. They still have trouble with this one. It is not a issue with other kids. Just each other! But, so far I like the changes they are making and they help they are giving.
