Sean and I have decided that we are done with night wakings and 5 am starts. (with the older two) Last night, Sean told the kids that if they stayed in bed until morning that they would get a treat. It worked! The kids stayed in bed until 7. I am not always big on the whole reward system but sleepy times call for desperate measures. I have used the chart in the past with good success so today we made up a chart for the kids and if they can stay in their beds for a week than they will get to earn a small treat. Caileigh is so certain it will be something edible. Food sure does talk to that girl. We will have to see what they decide on.
Think this will work too??
how cute!!! They look so eager standing in front of their charts!!! ....Sure hope it goes well tomorrow morning!!
