I've been so sick of Hayden and Rebecca's messy room. We can spend forever cleaning and it is destroyed in 5 min. or less. Notice I said, "We" not they. So new rule. Whatever they don't clean before bed gets put in a trash bag and put in the garage and they have to earn it back. Hayden and Rebecca were so proud of themselves last night for cleaning up all by themselves, and it made me so happy. I was telling them how great it was, and it made me happy. I asked if they feel good too.
Hayden said, "Yeah, mom. I like having a clean room. You should clean your room."

We have a 2 huge trash bags worth of Aiden's toys in the top of our closet. And if he helps clean he gets three toys back.
LOL!! My boys said the same thing to me in February! My room is always the last to get cleaned, which basically means never, or once in a blue moon, or yeah, never. I tried that same method when they were that age. I eventually had to up the stakes. Anything I have to pick up gets taken to DI. They didn't like that idea so they started cleaning.
