Practice Time

I stole this wonderful idea from my friend Amber. Every time she has to ask her kiddos to be quiet during Sacrament Meeting, they owe her 5 minutes of "Practice Time" when they get home from church. We tried it out today. Cody owed me 5 and Preston owed me 10. Right after church they had to sit, arms folded, mouths quiet, in full Sunday attire, and "practice" how they will sit next Sunday. Worked like a charm. Thanks Amber!!!

This does work!!! We did that when our kids were little and it did work like a charm. Hmmm... I wonder if it would still work with my almost 14 year old now??? :) Maybe I'll have to refresh his memory of about that! Thanks for the reminder! :)
