Our kids all did well in school again this semester.
They worked hard and deserved a good grade reward.
So here is what we did.
We called them in one at a time.
We handed them their empty sack and then as Trevor read them the letter, I threw the candy at them as he read.
They loved it!
The other night I went in to Ethan's room to kiss him goodnight. He was reading his letter. He smiled at me and said, "Mom, I get it now! Reeses is like recess at school. I totally get it now." He continued, "Thanks for this letter mom, I really love it." I asked him why he was reading the letter again (we had given it to him about a month earlier). He looked up at me and said, "Mom, I read it every night."
My guess is that he will continue to work hard in school so he can earn another good grade reward.
And that's exactly why we do it!
