Madeline saw a great idea (on SuperNanny) for posting family rules on paper plates and posting them for everyone to remember. Here are the rules she wrote and posted (see the paper plates on the top of the wall):
no hating, be nice to each other, clean up, do what mom and dad tell you,
no lying, try something new, eat 'helthy' food, no hitting, no yelling, ask first, no whining
She also designated a time out spot and rules for execution.
She had so much fun creating the rules; we are curious to see how much she will like it if she has to sit in time out.
So far though (and it's been 4 days), a quick reminder has kept her behavior right in line. I did notice that 'do homework' and 'clean bedroom' are not rules she posted. Smart kid.
