Hi. I’m so glad to hear that you will be starting your 21 month old little boy on the Children’s Miracle Music game. I start my children when they are born so that they can learn the SKILLS, HABIT and DESIRE to become self-reliant and responsible right from the start. I have a 21 month old also. Her name is Grace. She and my three year old, Angel, share a room. So, when the morning music starts I put my hand on Angels hand and, with Grace watching on from her crib, train her how to do one small thing to learn how to make her bed better. Right now she is learning how to lay her cuddle blanket flat on the floor and then match up the corners as she folds it. She then places it at the bottom of her bed. When I get over to Grace, she knows, by having watched my example, that she is supposed to be making her bed and she hands me her blanket. I then put my hand on her hand and help her to fold her blanket also. Since they practice this every day, they are becoming good at making their beds and folding their blankies. I change Graces diaper during the “Use the Bathroom” music and when the “Act of Kindness” music comes on she knows to run to the dryer and empty the lint screen. She then starts handing the dry clothes from the dryer to Angel to hang up. (Angel has been practicing doing the laundry every day for three years and can almost completely do our families laundry by herself.) Grace knows how to do these things because I have put my hand on her hand and done these things WITH her so many times that she now knows to do some of the laundry and bed making on her own. Every person, no matter what their age, needs to do these eight morning points and four evening points so that they can have the HABIT, SKILLS and DESIRE to get their necessary things done quickly and happily each day. They then have the rest of their day left over so that they can do what’s important like serve others instead of just themselves. Please let me know if you want me to expand on any of these things. It was good to hear from you.

Thanks for writing,
Christine

I just received your system free from the drawing at the Utah Valley Women’s Expo. I am so excited to start using it! The only problem is I’m not quite sure how to start. I have 1 child who’s 21 months and who still sleeps in a crib..therefore how do I get him to make the bed? Any suggestions on how to start?
Thanks.
