Yesterday I had time out a for all three kids for various reasons - throwing things (aishu) not telling the truth (ashwin) and hitting the sister (akshaya) !
Sounds like a mad house but wasn't so bad. Quite an enjoyable day yesterday with swimming a nap even and building with blocks. Did some rudimentary maths with ashwin too.
Aishu 's timeout was most dramatic. I put her there and counted to 10 straight away. In those seconds such drama. Akshaya had tears in her eyes. Ashwin stopped playing and went to console her saying aatha was naughty. Aye nan tells me she is crying so much! After 10 seconds o invited her out of ten corner. Everything was OK. 15 min later she goes back to the corner and looks at me cheekily with anticipation! I had to tell her it didn't count if she went there on her own accord!
