We have a sort of barter system in our house with dessert. When the kids ask for dessert, we usually have them first eat fruit and vegetables. Often, the conversation goes like this:
Child: Mom/Dad, I'm done! Can I have dessert now?
Parent: Did you eat fruit?
Child: Not yet.
Parent: Well, first have a slice of apple or pear or several grapes.
Child: OK!
Tonight after supper, Jenna decided aloud, "I'll spend my pear on a cookie and my apple on a brownie."
