The last couple of days, I have been trying a new approach to motivate my nephews to do their chores. I call it the "Turn it into a video game" model.
Get dressed? You passed the level. Brushed your teeth? You leveled up! Did something nice that you didn't have to do? You powered up! Wait, the next level is a cooperative timed level! Can you work together to win the level?
So far it's working. Which could just be because it's novel and I'm the aunt not the mom. But I am definitely going to milk it for all it's worth as long as I can.
