The Gobble Bag, cont.

So if you read my post below, you’ll know that I obviously need more time to implement this technique consistently. I am putting it into effect at this very moment with a slight modification. You see, I’m just not patient enough yet to give them the option of waiting till the very end of the day to pick up. So I set a timer for 30 minutes and told them when it beeped the Gobble Bag would be coming to collect any toys left on the floor. I’ll then do this again tonight for messes made the rest of the day. I may not stick with doing it twice every day, we’ll see.
*update*
They got their room picked up with 10 minutes to spare!

Oh - We must be related because I’m definitely not patient enough to wait until the end of the day…. Good luck - it sounds like an awesome idea and sounds like it’s working…
