At the beginning of summer the family sat down and made a list of some fun things we wanted to do this summer. Each person had to contribute 3 things. We posted our list on the kitchen bulletin board and marked off the items as we did them.
The orange star tacked above the summer list was mom's opportunity to eliminate the whining in the house and the boys' opportunity to finally get a Wii. We were probably the only family left without a Wii.
Each morning the orange star was tacked up on the bulletin board, but whenever someone began to whine or complain, the star came down for the day. The boys had to make it 7 days with no whining or complaining. They finally scored 7 days and we finally have a Wii!
