TimeOut


So we are not really a fan of time outs for kids who have no concept of what it is. Maya only started time-outs at age 4, after she had seen them at monisorri and had no idea what was going on.

However, Ever seems to have been born with the innate understanding of time-outs. He will get in trouble and be told he is a naughty boy and then he runs crying to this corner. We didn't pick it out- he did. We have even had to go and pick him up from the corner when he was crying too hard. We have used this to our advantage... when we do not think he is understanding what he has done is not good behavior we move him to the corner and suddenly he knows he has been a naughty boy.

I think it is funny so I had to take a picture.
