[quote=Anonymous]Get a jar and set a goal for them. Put a marble in the jar every time they meet the goal, and when they have so many marbles, they get a treat.

Example: They choose to work for a trip to the ice cream store. You tell them the price is ten marbles. (Start with a small number, to get success quickly.) Decide how often marbles are available. They can earn one by making it through a meal with no fighting. They can earn one by watching a TV show for 30 minutes and not fighting. Each time they get a marble, make a production of putting it in the jar and sound excited about it. They need teamwork to get the prize.

Then reset with a new goal.

If you see a child deliberately annoy his brother, he goes immediately to his room for ten minutes. Set a visual timer (look on Amazon). The ten minutes start when they are in their room. When it’s over, welcome them back and say you want everyone to keep their hands to themselves.

Put their chairs apart at meals, and make a rule they can’t both sit on the couch on the same time.

Good luck.[/quote]
