[quote=Anonymous]There was one summer where I printed out fake money and paid them to do worksheets and read. Then I had a box of prizes with price tags and they could use their earnings to buy the prizes. This worked well for one summer but was a dud the following summer. I think the problem was that my kids had outgrown the novelties I was offering. There was a request this year to bring back the prize box but I'm too cheap to stock it with prizes that would actually offer any incentive to work and it just seemed like I would be buying their efforts. I wish I was creative enough to find good prizes that aren't completely spoiling them.[/quote]
