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!

 

Poinsettia FlowersChristmas poinsettia

Materials

red paper
glue
scissors

 

1. Cut out squares of red paper.  You will need one square for each petal on your flower.  The flower in the picture used 4 inch or 10 cm squares.

2.  Cut out two circles from the red paper.  The larger circle should be about 2 inches (5 cm) across and the smaller circle about 1 inch (2.5 cm) across.  The exact size is not important.

3.  For each square, run glue in a line along edge.  Fold over the edge beside it to create a cone shape.  Press flat to create the petal shape.  Repeat for each of the petals.

4. Glue the petals around the large circle, fold side down.  Try to space them evenly.  Once they are all in place, glue the small circle on top. 

5.  Add glitter glue or sequins to the small center circle if you want.
