Memory Verses

A couple of months ago, I started working with this little boy on learning memory verses. At first it was great fun for him and he was doing great. Then the excitement started to wane and it became a fight to try to get him to recite them.
We needed something to look forward to, something to bring the fun back into it.
So, I promised him a trip to the Dollar Store and we decided that we were going to make a chart. When it's all full of stickers he get's a special prize. I asked him for a list of the prizes that he wanted. At the top of the list...a music box. (like in Pinocchio)
He's so silly.
Anyway, we are back on track with the memory verses and I don't have to coax them out of him anymore.
