OT: Tricked kids into raking leaves

I bought a bag of pumpkin faced garbage bags. You fill with leaves and then set them out for decorations until you're ready to throw them away. My son is on restrictions so I thought it would be a good job for him to do. He's loving it instead of being torture. My daughter found out he was outside "filling pumpkin bags" and she begged me to let her help. hahaha I'm going to have to disguise other chores as festive decorating.

I guess the trick with kids is the same as with computers. You have to be smarter than they are. Thanks for the chuckle.

I guess they got the "trich" before the "treat"! You sly thing you!

Sounds like a great way to get them to do a chore they hate.
