7 Habits of Happy Kids

This has recently become one of our favorite things to do.  It takes 21 days to form a new habit so every 21 days we read a story from this book.  We talk about the story and answer the questions at the end of each story.  Then we talk about the good habit associated with the story and make a sign to hang up somewhere to remind us to work on that habit every day.

I've had this book for a few years and never realized how great it was.  The kids love to read the stories, but there is a section for parents to read and I never actually read until recently.

This book follows the same habits from the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective Marriage that I recently wrote about.  It has been fun to work on these good habits with the kids.  I think we will do this every year until we can move on to the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens.
