[quote=Anonymous]Talk about things before they happen. For example, before bath time sit down together. Maybe make it special with a drink or a little snack or some cuddles, and say "I've noticed that we're having a problem at bath time . . . " Explain how this impacts them "Then I have to clean up, and I don't have as much time to read to you . . ." and offer a challenge "Can you try and stay on the bathmat, so we can have time for 2 chapters of [u]My Father's Dragon[/u] tonight?"[/quote]
