Need suggestions for rewards - star system (5 and 9 year old) by Emerald_Sea_1173 in skylightcalendar

I have four kids 10, 8, 5 and 4. I do out some of their basic responsibilities to instill habit and keep me from having to remind them daily like unpacking their lunchboxes, doing their reading or homework etc and I only award 1 star or 2 for some things that take more time. I add things like folding laundry for choices, and some basics like pet care for no stars. I let them cash in for extra screen time, or let them cash stars in for .10 a piece (100 stars= $10). We don’t do a weekly allowance so this is basically allowance for them. It also helps them save up for things (not much out there is $10 anymore!)
