Meet...the jar ( I can't seem to get the underline off)...sorry.
So, this is the jar, the "good behavior jar"...really it's a wine glass without the stem. he,he!
Morgan's whining has been so out of control and obnoxious I have resorted to the good old teaching method of behavior jars. When she does good deeds (ie - helps someone, uses kind words, listens/follows directions, etc) she will get a marble (coin for now until we can find some marbles). And when she is "on the naughtly list" as she calls it, she gets a marble taken away (ie - whining, complaining, not listening, saying "no" to Mommy/Daddy, or she gets put in the corner). When the jar is full, Morgan gets to do something special with one or both of us (ie - go the movies, bowling, play space, etc).
It's only 845am on Day 1, and I must say, it's working beautifully! What a pleasant "Morgan" it's been!!
sweet! don't know where you can find marbles- but what about those colored "rock" things that you put into the bottom of vases? those are cheap and you can pick out all sorts of colors.
