Gen Conf tally marks ✅

To help our kids pay better attention during General Conference, we invented a fun little system:
They create a list of words they think they might hear. Not simple words like "a" "the", etc. But gospel related words like "Jesus Christ" and "family" and "Heaven."
They make a tally mark for each time they hear the word.
Brianna has learned that this can be a lucrative thing...
From five sessions last weekend (and not even paying attention during a bit of each!) she made 1,250 tally marks! That's $12.50! 💰 Courtney earned about $7 and Bennett $2.76. Perhaps as they get older they'll be more motivated ;)
Hopefully next year Ivan, Ciarra and Charity will be ready to do this too! For this year... we just let them play quietly and have snacks while watching :)💛
