Choose the reward before the quest
Ask what would feel fun and realistic this week. “Pick the next family game” has a clear meaning and a shared cost of zero. Agree on when that game time could happen, so the reward is something the family can deliver.
Keep the task and reward distinct
The quest in this video is game pieces back in their box. After the child taps “I did it!”, a parent checks and approves. That approval adds XP toward the reward the family picked. The exact reward, task and pace remain your decision.
