Positive Discipline Parenting Tool Cards

I ordered these cards and got them in the mail recently. I'm always looking for ideas to help me to parent positively and peacefully. I went to the Positive Discipline website and saw that there were a couple of people who were going to focus on one card per week during 2012 and blog about it. So, I am jumping on the bandwagon.
