After 4 months of recycling not only our own glass, aluminum & plastic but also plenty of friends and neighbors, Peyton made enough to pay for 1/2 of a Wii. We headed over to Costco, got it, hooked it up and now.......we can't get him away from it. He doesn't have any games besides the sports pack it came with and still he's in love with it. I feel that the whole lesson of making him earn 1/2 was worth it when that night as I was tucking him in he gave me a hug and told me, "wow mom, that took a really long time. I will take good care of it but I want to keep recycling just our stuff so I can pay for 1/2 my games." Such a cute boy.

Way cool, i think this is some of the best parenting i have ever seen. To have Peyton earn it, and earn it by going green was so creative. Congrats to the whole family on this one...John Cox
