The magical way to improve behavior.

Hi Reader, Do you ever find yourself saying the same thing over and over again? Need a more effective way to teach? Try role plays! They are MAGIC!✨ Why?

Hi Reader, I once counted how many times I said "No" to my kids in a day and it was embarrassingly high. No wonder I felt like we weren't connected! I had to make some serious changes. The truth is, "NO!" is short, abrupt, commanding. AND no fun! And if we use it all the time, it matters less and less. That doesn’t mean we can’t hold boundaries that keep everyone safe, we just want to greatly reduce the “NO” so that it matters, AND greatly increase the “YES” so that our children feel we are...
