Wheel of Better Behavior for children
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!

 

Jelly Treasure Hunt

Materials

large bowl or other container
jelly packets, or a jar of jelly

Instructions:

  1. Get about 50 packets of the cheapest jelly that you can find.
  2. Break them up in the bowl.  The children will love doing this step.
  3. Once all the jelly is all broken up, put enough water in to fill the bowl.
  4. When the jelly and water mix together, have the children add the treasure.  ( eg. plastic spiders, snakes, ponies, marbles, ...)
  5. Leave to set. It may take overnight for the jelly to set as a large bowl may not fit in the fridge.

Once the jelly treasure has set, let the children loose to dig out the toys.  They will have lots of fun hunting for the treasure.

Children love to see the toys through the jelly and squish the jelly in their fingers.

Thank you to one of our visitors for sending in this treasure hunt activity.
