I hope your 10 yr old keeps up the good work and self motivation! Yes, just hang it on your fridge. That always works well...if you can find a spot! :) If your fridge is anything like mine, you may have to clear a spot. Last summer, my kids were very excited and completed their chores without any reminders at first. As the summer went on, I had to remind them they only had X number of days to earn the tickets to reach their incentive for the week. I tried to make it so if they missed a chore or two, they would still make the incentive. I also let them do extra credit chores. I love to hear good news!
