creating a procedure to do multiple things

I'm new to VB.NET and am creating an MDI application.

What I would like to do is create a procedure to accomplish a few simple tasks

the tasks that I want to complete by calling a procedure is:

        [form name]= New [form name]
        [form name].MdiParent = Me
        [form name].Show()

I want to do this because it seems pointless to write the 3 lines of code every time I want to create a new child form

thanks for the help
