We use it as a reward and don't let the kids take it for granted. if they misbehave or don't do their chords, there is no show. We also make sure to provide alternatives such as play together, a play date with friends or other outdoor activities.

I shot it off and turn on my iPod and we have a crazy dance party. We to limbo and chicken dance as well as other dances. This way I get my kids to listen to different music from country and kids songs to rock.
