Trying to motivate my kids to wash their own dishes… each day. A ticket contest didn’t work bec they just relied on a few entries. I want a consistent buildup… anyone tried and succeeded?

Thanks!!

You could always literally add tickets per amount in their daily streak, starting fresh each Sunday. So Sunday they can earn one ticket, Monday two if they earned a ticket yesterday, Wednesday 3 if they did Sun and Mon, and if they break their streak they start at 1 again.
Then, yes, they may only do Sunday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, but they'll only have 4 tickets by Friday, vs their sibling with potentially 21 tickets! Can one of their 4 tickets still win? Yeah but the odds are just so much lower!
Might that work?
