My boys have lots of hair!
So regular haircuts are a must to stop the sweaty scratch that looks like nits!
Shopping for our egg timer to help with the "calm down time" strategy to be implement as a result of our last appointment with M. W is doing so well - he really understands the 'magic breathing' and the need for him to move from red to green. And that Mummy only talks with him when he is in green. We are definitely avoiding more emotional tsunamis, though when we do have one it is still pretty big. We are hoping the "calm down time" strategy with the egg timer will help him help himself calm down and be in control. That is, he is not locked into timeout anymore but will be left able to bring himself in, when he is in green, once the timer goes off (1 -2 minutes). Will keep you posted on how that goes!!
Toddler tip # 36: Rainy day activities - throw them in the bath for half an hour, even if it is not bath time. Gave me 20 minutes to start writing my blog, though most parents use if for something useful like doing washing up or tidying the house !!
