The Privilege Jar

Okay, so being on maternity leave has really got me thinking about some new fresh and fun ideas for my kiddos.  My sister is currently going to a weekly Bible study on Sunday evenings.  It's about disciplining your children.  I'm so bummed that I can't go {it started right after Hudson was born} because I feel like I could really use some help with my SPUNKY 2 year old.  Most of the things she has learned are for older children and things I can't really use at home right now.  The newest thing that she's implemented at home {and her girls love} is the privilege jar.  Basically, she sat down with her girls and asked them some things they would like to do.  Some of these include painting their Dad's toenails, drinking a coke at dinner, and some other cute things.  These are written on strips of paper, folded, and placed in a jar.  When she feels they have done something EXTREMELY awesome, she may {not always} tell them that they can pull a privilege from the jar.  This is the cutest idea, and it got me thinking..... this would be A.W.E.S.O.M.E. to use in the classroom!  I think it would be a good idea to have your students {with your approval} come up with the privileges.  When you are finished, it may look something like this!

I hope you all can gain some use from these ideas and use them in your classroom.  If you already use this or if you decide to use it, I would love to hear from you!
