"We use a magnetic chore chart. My son moves individual tasks from 'to do' to 'done' each day. If he doesn't do a particular task, a predetermined amount of money is deducted from his weekly allowance. No arguing. He tends to pay extra attention to completing the tasks the following weeks." –"In our house, we have an allowance system," says Susan Kruger, M.Ed. "If someone is having trouble completing a 'magnet task,' it will cost him.
In other families, the opportunity to earn a set amount of money based on completion of each chore or task works. Kids get to choose how much they earn by how much they do."Looking forward to spending time with friends — at a play date or sleep over — help to motivate our daughter. It is only effective 50 percent of the time, but that is better than zero percent!!!" –"Wanting to spend time with friends causes children to get homework done more quickly," says Susan Kruger M.
"What really motives my son is increased mom time in the evening doing the activity of his choice. So I often find myself fishing, bug hunting, and rock collecting as a reward for reaching small goals, set up to help get him successfully thru a school day." –"One-on-one 'date' time scheduled as a reward motivates my child to complete tasks.
