    So, we all need to work on the habit of patience, myself included. I would love some advice:

    How to I schedule this on the CM Organizer – daily then check the box each day, for 6-8 weeks?

    Practical tips – how to do this without nagging?  I have Laying Down the Rails, which is a huge help. Just wanted any top practical tips.

    (Oh, my kids are 4 and 6)

    Thanks!

    Hi Inky,

    I don’t use the orgainizer as we are only doing preK this year with my 4.5 and 3.5 yos, but I do have a written plan and I just put the habit we are working on at the top of the plan so that it is continually brought to *my* attention. It helps me to remember throughout the day to look for opportunities to work on that habit. If we have to wait for a friend to go to the park I talk about how patience helps us be a good friend as we wait. If my daughter is quiet for 2 seconds while waiting for lunch, I praise her patience. If possible I look for books at the library that focus on the habit we are working on.
