[quote=Anonymous]Stop with the workbook! Point out numbers, count cereal as you give them to her, count when you push her on the swing, etc. Children lie, it's a natural part of development which shouldn't be punished. Take previous person's advice and when a lie does happen tell her it's important to tell the truth, but don't make a battle out of it. The next day when she wants a treat say, "yesterday you took an extra piece, so no candy today. Maybe tomorrow after lunch." When she wanders off, make her hold her hand or sit in a stroller. Keep a pleasant voice. If she fights with you about it say, "oh, I guess we need to go home now." Then follow through. Find a natural or logical consequence to whatever action is being done and do so in a friendly tone and demeanor. [/quote]
