I am a Dave Ramsey fan, so know that right off the bat. My kids are older than yours but we don't pay them tons; all jobs are part of being a member of the household. But, we want them to learn how to handle money. So some chores they do for "free" like take dishes out of the dishwasher and cleaning their rooms. But here are a couple of chores that pay $0.50 handwashing dishes, $0.25 cleaning toilets and bathroom sinks, $3 for vacuuming whole house, $3 for mopping and dusting whole house (just a 2100 sq. ft. home), $2.50 for pulling weeds (5 gal bucket worth), etc. The point is to teach them that in the real world to get paid you work. THey tithe and save 10 - 20%, then use the rest on whatever "junk" they want. They also have to pitch in to buy gifts for their friends. They normally earn a minimum of $5/week if they do my minimum requirements. My daughter has been know to rack up up to $20 in a week for doing other jobs.
If your kids did do the work to earn money then I think that is something to celebrate. I wouldn't pay for the picking up of toys, etc. but maybe $1 for watering down the house, etc. It would be good to come up with a list with chores and their commission price (whatever your family can afford) ahead of time.
