Sometimes it has become necessary to deal with tempers and tantrums, possibly even temper tantrums at our house. We have found a great way of calming our tempers and alleviating the need to throw tantrums.
Step one. Throw tantrum because Christmas is over and the tree doesn't fit in its box (who is throwing the tantrum here?).
Step two: be on the receiving end of an evil glare ( guess who she learned that awesome skill from).Step three: take some soothing time together putting laundry going, and sit on the washer as it turns on. Works best if you have an agitate cycle. Soothing noises, fresh smells, soothing thoughts from getting things accomplished. Win.
Step four: enjoy your newly calmed states of mind, and play dress up together.
"Do these jammies make my legs look fat?"
