We have had to bribe our primary class to encourage appropriate behavior during our Sunday School lessons. I made a "behavior-momenometor" to help gauge the behavior in the classroom. When they are on HOT and stay on HOT, it means they are closer to having a party. If they refuse to say a prayer, sit in their seat or be reverent, the behavior-momenonmetor will slip down to WARM, COOL or COLD... taking them far away from a party. Well, these nine 10 year-olds were on HOT five times in a row which elicited a PARTY.
We went to the movies and saw Disney's Enchanted. Then came over to our apartment for pizza, decorating cupcakes, and playing games. I felt like a 10 year old hoping my friends would come to my party. It was fun to see their reaction when their parents came to pick them up. They were actually disappointed they had to leave! The party was a success!

that is so cool! How did you like the movie? :)
I love it!! You guys are totally in your element with those 10 year olds!! And how in the world do you pronounce "momenometor"? I've been sitting here trying to sound it out for the last 10 minutes.
No one should ever be above bribery.
Move to Newnan and you can have your very own niece in your primary class!!
