Today we started a habit jar. I took an old candle jar, and we cleaned out the leftover wax. Then we each picked a habit we would like to work on.
The hubs and I are going to try to not yell. Cinderella wants to practice the piano each day. Guy wants to try to not chew on his shirt. Aurora wants to work on personal hygiene. And Spike just needs to try to use the bathroom.
Each day as we say nightly family prayers, we will follow up, and everyone who worked on their habit that day (practiced a good habit or avoided a bad habit), gets to put a marble in the jar. When we fill the jar, we get a reward as a family.

Good idea! I hope the motivation of filling the jar keeps you going!
Great idea!
