to creating habit for children is not an easy thing, but it must be started as early as possible. I have 3 kids; 8, 6 and 4 years old. To create habit for them I make schedule list and make a deal what should to do. In the deal, who are do the job will get the reward and who are not do the job will reduce the reward. It will like a competition between them. It's already running in 2 weeks, not smooth, but I think it's a good start. any other trick from you guys?

Hmm... that sounds like a good idea. I never did that with my kids but there was so much difference in age that I don't think that would work. (I also didn't meet my son until he was 13 years old.)

It can practice to one kid or more. The point is how to make kid interesting do the task

@MasGion I see... I just told my kids do the tasks or I won't give you money when you ask for it. *shrug* That worked well when they were younger and, in my daughter's case, worked well until she was in her twenties. Now, of course, my daughter has access to my bank accounts, my credit cards and even my cash. She helps me with our money and our payments. It made sense to give her access to everything.

My kids are teenager now. I let them help me with their own will. If they don't help me, No smile for them for the rest of the day

It seems nice. But what do you think about "children would love to do something just because there is a reward"?

For first time it's Ok. Has been run 1 month. They start discipline to do the task when time is coming. Will be their needs until they grow older

if no one does the job it should be punished. The penalty is additional study… I think it's a good idea.

@suwardie03 yes I think we shouldn't force our child to do something. It must be communicate slowly, so their responsibility will grow

I think that is a good idea. Even little children can have simple jobs to help out in the house.

This is a good idea. Kids enjoy rewards for chores.

It's a great idea. My grandchildren the ages of your children. You can change the plan over time to meet your needs and theirs. The important thing is that you are teaching your kids responsiblity!

A very interesting idea. There was a time that I used a certain method based on giving pluses and minuses for certain things. Every 7 days there was a countdown and prizes or no prizes.

Yes correct. Every week they will count how many prize their get. It like a competition between them, so they will spurred in next day.
