I would do something that has a very special meaning to each girl. Something they would not normally get to do except for special occasions. This way your girls will look forward to being treated to something special for continuous good behavior. This is a tough to please age. Ask the girls to make a list of things they would like to do, see or explore. Next time you decide to treat them you will have a list of things that are truly special for them to look forward too.
If they are girly girls take them for a spa pedicure and lunch. Whatever you decide to do I think it's great to spend time with them because in another year or so they will only want to walk the mall with friends and look at the boys.

Maybe a special day out with alone with you, letting them pick the itinerary? Sometimes getting all of moms attention for a while is the best motivator.

Lunch out followed by clothes shopping should do the trick.

tell them how proud you are of them. It is cheap and they will remember it a lot longer than just giving them something.
