@Purpsy: thanks. Better luck next time for you too!
I think I'm going to start logging my sleep patterns, coffee intake, and energy levels through the day to see if there's some correlation that I'm not currently seeing. I'm not sure I'm looking forward to it, but it might show something...

The VR Headsets are not cheap - that's for sure! My son has the Valve Index. He loves it, of course, and he earned it by working so hard the last couple of years but $$$!!

@Wildfire: My husband and I talked about doing end of year big purchases for the kids if they do well in school.
I never did that growing up, so I don't know if it's an efficient motivator.

@Koah: We didn't do that either - either growing up or raising our kids, so I can't weigh in on that at all. This was a graduation gift for him because he graduated high school... and college ... with two associate degrees ... and Magna Cum Laude ... all at the same time. He worked very hard, did very well, and it's all he wanted

@Koah: Yes he did totally earn that headset!
What kind of end-of-year rewards are you thinking about doing?

My husband brought up tablets. or a telescope or something along those lines. I don't know if we will or not.

It's hard to tell. Do they respond to fiscal or physical rewards now for other things?
Whatever you do, it needs to be something that they earn individually and not tied to the whole family unless it's a surprise gift if they both (you have two, right?) do well.

We know, over time, they'll need their own tablets/ipads or whatever. I've got two kids. My son does well with school. but he does great when there's a motivator. He likes receiving things, where my daughter likes receiving sweets. She has a short attention span.

Voltie Posted 4 years ago ( 2020/11/6 18:12:53 )
It sounds like he would benefit from something like that, then. Maybe not your daughter, though, since sweets tend to make short attention spans worse as a general rule. Tough call. :(

We'll see, It looks like public schools around here are opening up again. Which is a whole new topic. I'm not sure what i'll be doing on that front.
I just finished the little 3rd rpg game for the event. C:

@Koah: I'm back. Sorry - I got sucked down a rabbit hole.
The third mini-game is released? How was it?

It's a cute minigame. Short, but cute!

@0v7: Good to know. Was it difficult?

My son is watching "Swamp People". They're hunting alligators. It is oddly compelling to see, tbh, but some of that might be simply because I live in an area where these monsters live

@Wildfire: It requires some... exploration, to say the least, but it's easy!

@0v7: Oh that was kind of cute. It took me a little while to figure out where to find these clues, but that was short-lived, fortunately. The item looks really cute too! :3
