[quote=Anonymous]Pay them. Seriously. I made a chart for my DDs and told them "You are to do these things. At the end of each day, I will check off which of these things you did. At the end of each week, I will count the checkmarks and you will get five cents for each one. Whoever gets the most checkmarks will get a quarter, and if EVERY thing gets checked for EVERY day of the week, you'll get a dollar." Money was such a great motivator. I kept it up for an entire month, and then it had become habit. It seemed like after 3 weeks it had become habit, but I wanted to make sure. [/quote]
