Children are usually so much more open to the law of attraction. It’s natural for them. Of course we don’t need to say to our kids “Hey, sit down and I’ll teach you all about the law of attraction.” That, I feel would be boring.

If you’re already using the law of attraction in your own life, let your kids see you use it. For example if you are working on attracting a new car. Ask your kids to play pretend with you.

Mum – “Hey kids, Mummy wants a new car. Do you want to pretend we’re all going for a ride in my new, shiny red car?”

You can be pretty sure your kids are going to want to play this game. Set out the chairs for all the passengers, pop on your seat belts and pop your favourite CD into the player.

Mum- “Everyone ready?”

Kids – “Yeah! Let’s go Mum.”

Three things are happening here.

1. You are holding a strong focus for already having your red, shiny car which makes it clear to the Universe what you want.

2. You are having a really good time (you feel good) which makes it easy for the Universe to send you what you want.

3. You are showing your kids how to use the law of attraction.

Easy isn’t it?

Visualizing what we want is a great tool to share with our kids.

My son recently went on a coach trip with his school. Normally, the night before the trip he’d be really excited but, for some reason he was not. When I asked him about the trip he told me that when he goes on the coach, he wants to sit by the window and he never get to do that when he goes with his school.

I told him to close his eyes and imagine walking onto the coach, up the steps and down the aisle until he reached a seat he’d like to sit in. Then to slide across and sit by the window. I told him to imagine all the things he would see out of the window as they travelled along the road. He did as I explained. When we’d finished I asked him if he had a good coach trip sitting by the window. He laughed and ran off to play.

That night when he was tucked up in bed, I talked him through the visualization again and suggested he think about sitting by the window as he fell asleep.
On the way to school the next day he did the same thing. When I said goodbye to him I told him I to have a fantastic coach trip and I wanted him to come home and tell me about all the things he saw out of the window during the journey.

“Okay Mum,” he shouted as he ran into school.

When he came out of school he was so excited. He’d sat next to the window on the way to farm they were visiting. He told me he sat next to a boy from his class and they had to pair up and sit together on the way back to school. He told me that when they got on the coach to come home, the other boy had asked him if he’s like to sit by the window again because he didn’t want to. Needless to say my son was very happy with this arrangement.

The next time your child tells you what they don’t want or they are upset about something, see if you can find a way to share the law of attraction with them.
