[quote=Anonymous]Maybe you need to just say it more directly. Ask your kid if he wants to do an art project today, suggest one, and if he says yes then when the nanny comes tell her, "Aidyn is REALLY looking forward to making a monster face with you this morning! The art supplies are over there - can't wait to see what you two come up with!" Or you can confront her directly. "Kimmie, I know Aidyn likes you very much, which pleases me. I think we're having a slight communication breakdown though, and I'd like to nip it in the bud. When I say to you, "he loves to spray the hose around the garden" or "Feel free to fill up the pool and let him play in the water," those are suggestions of things for you to do that he'll enjoy. If there's not some huge reason why you can't do those - and by all means if there is PLEASE let me know - then I'm a little confused as to why you're not doing them. Do you need help to turn on the water?"[/quote]
