TJed suggests using a bean counting game. The girls earn beans to put in a jar and when the jar is full they get to do an activity of their choice. They earn beans in a myriad of ways, for having a positive attitude, finishing all their chores, reading a lot pages, etc. It's different everyday. They can never ask for beans, but they are earned by everyone so they encourage each other.
Kendi chose this indoor inflatable playground to go to when their bean jar was full. They have been earning beans since the beginning of the summer so it was nice to see their efforts finally pay off.
My camara phone wasn't very good at taking action shots. I wish I could have captured the looks on their faces as they went down the big slide. It was sheer terror every time, but they kept going back for more. Kendi is a lot more cautious than Aydri when it comes to these kinds of things. I wonder if Aydri's eyes struggle with depth perception. They had a blast.
