Based on the bestselling parenting book 1-2-3 Magic, and adapted especially for kids! "1-2-3 Magic made parenting fun again."

If you want to see a fast improvement in your child's behavior, check out 1-2-3 Magic." The popular 1-2-3 Magic parenting program has been adapted to be introduced from a child's point of view! This innovative guide explains the child discipline system―from counting and time-out methods to how better behavior benefits the entire family and leaves more time for play―with clear, easy-to-understand language and lots of illustrations. 1-2-3 Magic for Kids describes the basics of the 1-2-3 Magic program, including: • Positive reinforcement • Charting • The docking system A question-and-answer section outlines common family situations and questions from kids, including: • What if I don't go to my room? • Will I still be counted if I have a friend over? • What kinds of things can we do for one-on-one fun? Crossword puzzles, word searches, and journal suggestions further encourage children to apply what they've learned about the methods, and make 1-2-3 Magic for Kids a fun way to get kids on board with the new rules at home.
