[quote=Anonymous]Does she play by herself in there or is she coming out/trying to escape/trying to get you to engage? Is it possible that she needs some time to unwind by herself? If she's in daycare all day, shares a room with her brother, and gets 2.5 hours of parent/family time this chaos time might be the only time she gets to just do what she wants on her own. Maybe declare 7-7:30 to be her time when no one is allowed to bother her and she can play what she wants (as long as its safe) in her room. This advice is not based on my experience with my children, I'm basing it on my own self-destructive need to stay up late to get time to putter around on my own. I can't power down until I've had some alone time. If it's a can't get her to just be still problem, we've had good luck with audio books, but it sounds like you've already tried that.[/quote]
