This book consists of a laminated list of rules, posters and coloring pages for each rule. You can copy the coloring pages so that each child can work on one while you study the rule. The beginning of the book has several pages of ideas on how to teach the rules.
This is not a complete curriculum. It takes some parent preparation. The parent needs to take the rules and find Bible stories and verses and activities that apply.
Just to note: One rule is about accepting punishment. The coloring page and poster that go with it depict a child over his father's knee about to be paddled. I know that that is not a picture I would have enjoyed coloring as a child.

We have been learning and using the 21 Rules of this House for a while and find that it has really changed the way we all relate to one another. I love to hear my children saying to each other, we speak quietly and respectfully to each other. instead of screaming and bickering. It is nice for them to have a positive way to express their feelings. It clearly outlines how we should treat each other and makes it clear that respect for others is important to good family relationships. The rules are easy to learn and remember. The book is complete with a poster, mini posters to color and a coloring book set that can all be reproduced for however many children you have. We have really enjoyed this book.
