Understanding Incentives

Today I told Little Man that before he did anything else he had to clean up the mess in the playroom.  After a couple of minutes of tidying, he asked, "Mommy, after I finish cleaning up can I have a treat?"
"No, you just had a cookie with your lunch"
"Well, what can I have?"
"A hug and a kiss for being a good helper"
"ok...... Wait, what kind of kiss?  The chocolate one or one on my cheek?
"One on your cheek"
Deep sigh, "ok" and back he went to cleaning up.
