D is for Doer

Begin this week with a focus on being a Doer. Make a DO BE Chart to encourage good behavior that will please God. Chart desired performances of the child. Give your child a star as each daily duty is done. You can also make a chart of areas you would like to work on this week.


Here's an example:

OBEY -Honor Mother and Father
LOVE - Love your brother and sister
KIND - Be kind to your friends
PRAY - Daily prayers
SPEAK - Say nice encouraging words and guard your tongue
SHARE - Share toys with others
GOOD - Have good behavior in church
MANNERS - Use your manners, please and thank yous
BED - Go to bed on time without a fuss
CLEAN - Take car of your body, brush teeth, comb your hair, take a bath
CHORES - Clean up your toys, make your bed.. from Barney sing: Clean up, clean up everybody everywhere, clean up, clean up everybody do your share.


Give your child a star each time they do this. Use the key words and explain to your children why they get the star and what each key word means. At the end of the week give them a prize for stars they have on the chart.




James 1:23 KJV
For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
