the consequence jar

this is pretty simple.

when the kids break a rule in the house, they have to pull from the consequence jar. it can be any container really, as long as it has a lid and enough room to shake it up. their punishment is then whatever the paper says.

i like doing this because then i dont have to think of a fitting punishment. they may get off easy but then they may not.

this is what i have in my jar:

-write out why what you did was wrong

-scrub kitchen table, if it is messy clean it off first

-clean up back yard all by yourself

-serve all your brothers and sisters a snack....but you dont get one for yourself

-wash and put away dishes

-grounded for a day

-take all dirty laundry to laundry room

-parents choice

-scrub the bathtub

-wipe out the fridge

-stand in corner for 20 minutes

-loose 1 ticket

- loose 2 tickets

-pick up sticks in front yard

-write out an apology

-stand in corner for 10 minutes

-mop kitchen floor

that is all i have in there for now. i may add more later ;)
