Recently I told the kids that if they were cavity free at the dentist they would get $20. This was a huge motivator for Tayson and he took this very seriously. I rarely have to bug him to brush his teeth now. I simply say "go brush your teeth" and he does. Plus $20 is way cheaper than paying for fillings. All 4 kids had dentist appointments so I went to the bank and got out cash for them. I let our dentist in on the deal and he was so great about making it a big deal for the kids. They were so excited to get their teeth checked and when the dentist announced they were cavity free I handed them their money. They loved it!! All of them were cavity free and they have been even more motivated to keep brushing and flossing since.
Showing me their smiles and cash
Tayson bought a skateboard with his money.
It was $19.99 so he had to borrow a couple of dollars from Luke to pay for his taxes
Luke bought a $4 ball a little bug thing, paid for part of Taysons and put the rest in his piggy bank.
Claire bought a new princess outfit
And Sophie got to buy a new pair of sunglasses (I didn't give her $20).
She is showing me the peace sign
