Pretty Little Liars Set the Mood with Music
When you watch a movie the music always sets the mood. When a couple are kissing they play romantic music. Someone is upset sad music etc.
I have my own personal soundtrack, no I’m not singing. I have songs picked out that I love listening to at certain times, upbeat dance tunes when I’m working out. slow country music when I’m sad, and usually rock when I’m happy or cleaning. I like the song Jack and Jill by Katie Herzig, I’m not sure what it is. When the lyrics and the tone of the song come on, I could actually picture my life on a show and that song playing.
Here is a video of Fay Wolf describing her song Your love( most popular song), which is available only on the soundtrack.

Behavior And Chore Charts At Goalforit.com
www.goalforit.com is a website where you create your own Goal chart. That’s not all though you can make a behavior chart, chore chart, or even a to do list.
They have lots of different themes and categories for the charts, it makes it so much fun for the kids.
I decided to make a chore/behavior chart for my kids to follow. Which I hope they can stick to, because they haven’t behaved lately.
Here is a preview of mine.
***I couldn’t capture the whole chart, but I really like their graphics for the charts. They have tons of headers to choose from for your child favorite. I chose rocker girl, purple butterflies, and a fire truck. Then you have the chore or behavior you would like to add. When a chore is completed you just click on the circle to give a check mark, and tons of different stickers pop up for your child to choose from. Then at the end of the day or week you can write down what prize or amount of money they’ve earned.
I have been using the chart for a few days now and my kids have been a little better about following it. They do all the chores on the list no problem, it’s the behavior part they have trouble with. They are all under the age of 6 though, so that’s to be expected. I think this is a lot of fun and its a good way to teach your kids that when they do listen and show them that when they do, a reward will follow.
