Experience the Thrill of Well Behaved Kids Overnight with this One-Of-A-Kind, Powerful New Parenting Tool

Better Behavior gives families discipline creative options without spanking. When your child misbehaves, spin the wheel and he or she is required to follow whatever consequence the arrow stops on. Your child participates in choosing the consequences, so he or she will have an investment in the process and be much more willing to give the Wheel a spin when the time comes.

Just having the Wheel in your home can change the atmosphere overnight. It's guaranteed! Conflict resolution becomes much easier to deal with. Families who use the Wheel report dramatic changes in their households. Homework gets done, clothes get picked up, arguing stops...in short, the Wheel produces great kids and a stress free environment! The mere presence of the Wheel will have a marked effect on your kids. Chances are, you'll seldom even have to spin it!

What do you do with all the colored egg shells after Easter?  Your kids have worked hard to create these beautiful colors, they want to keep them.

One childrens craft idea is to break the shells into small pieces.  Then the kids can use them like mosaic tiles to decorate pictures.  They can make pictures using the shell pieces on butterfly wings, sails for boats, petals for flowers, walls on houses, wings on a bird or just about anything.

Directions

• Have the children draw their picture with a pencil or marker. 
•  Spread glue in the area to color using the pieces of Easter egg shell. 
• Fill the glue section with shell pieces and let dry.

 For more complicated pictures, divide the egg shells by color before starting the picture.
