[quote=Anonymous]When my son was in his "loud singing in the morning" phase, we took away 15 minutes of his free time in the evenings so that he could go and get what he needed to get ready for school in his bedroom. We have a futon couch in his room and he would have to put his clothes there and get his backpack ready there. He would get up, come down and have breakfast. Then we would send him into his room to get ready and close the door and he could sing loudly. If he was done singing or he was ready to go, he could come out. It helped reduce the friction in the mornings. Not sure if it would work in your situation, but he eventually outgrew that (especially when he wanted that time back in the evening to play video games before bedtime).[/quote]
