Would you?

Would you send your 6 year old to their room all day for something that they shouldn’t have done and they know they shouldn’t have done? Or if they keep acting bad would you send them to their room all day?

Time!

When do you guys find time to read? I love reading but never can seem to find the time. I have an almost 6 year old and an almost 5 month old. I own two boutiques, so in my free time, I’m cleaning, cooking, working or attending to children.

Throwing toys

My son is 22 months old and is still throwing so many toys. I take it away and usually try to redirect but so far that has not helped.

What to do in the 2.5 hour - 3 hour wake window?!

I am at a loss with what to do with my little boy... He goes 15 minutes in his jumperoo, then on the lounge floor on his mat with toys, then we'll go upstairs for a change of scenery, and play in his room, or he'll watch me fold/hang washing. This is pretty much every wake window, except for when we go out for a wal...
