Allowance

We started an allowance system around here lately and it was a big hit! Each of the kids gets $10 a month. We taught them about tithing the first FHE after we started giving allowances and helped them fill out their tithing slips. They put $4 into savings and the rest is theirs to spend as they’d like. Daddy took them to target to let them spend their $5 and they came back with micro blanks. These teeny little resin models with paints (papa would be so proud!). Here is one that Owen painted. The kids have loved this. They love handing their tithing envelopes to the bishop. They love getting their own money. I love that when they ask me, “when are we going to by_____ toy?” I can say, “That’s a great thing to save your allowance up to buy!” Win. Win.
