Chores = Tickets = Prizes

We have set up a system where the kids do chores and they earn tickets for doing so. Then they can turn the tickets in for prizes.

I have the chores in plastic page dividers so they can use a dry erase marker to write their initial beside whatever core they have finished. They also can earn tickets with good behavior and during school time when I ask questions, and by doing extra chores when asked.

I color coded the tickets so that there would be no fighting about someone stealing mine or so on. They also can loose tickets with bad behavior.

The store that we have made has small and big prizes. The store is only opened at certain times so they can not go whenever they want. This teaches them how to save, works on counting, and patience.

I got these ideas from several other websites and just put together what I thought would work for us. I am also trying to not spend a lot of money doing so in the process (since we don't have a lot to spend..lol) The ticket prices we set are based on how many tickets they can earn. The lowest ticket item we have is 10 tickets. All the kids can easily earn 10 tickets every day.
