[quote=Anonymous]I have a child who has always had trouble with transitions. What really helps us is an egg timer :) whenever we need to move on to something new (bath, homework, chores, going somewhere), I give her a bit advance warning along with the timer. Sometimes I give her a choice: 'how many minutes would you like to finish what you are doing and come set the table? 10 or 15 minutes'. Then I set the timer and give it to her. She feels in control and it helps tremendously with her behavior during transition.[/quote]
