Wen Wen the same, she sometimes will keep after play, sometimes just leave the living room like a rubbish dump... me also don't know how to deal with her, really... I believe when Wen grow older, she will know what to do with it, but first we as parents must really show good example... Kellys last blog post..Am I pushing too hard?

Once I really do what I said, I threw away Jo2’s toy in front of him (of course those broken one). From that day onwards, he knows that my word counts, not say say only-lo.

i understand totally. i only clean up at the end of the day when we all go to sleep or after his bath time. we have more toys for him than he is able to play with.

seems cruel but yes gotta teach kids a lesson. i do that too, or worst, i show them by throwing toys into the big dustbin! toys laying all over the floor and i dont want my new maid to pick it up for them… next time my kids wont pick up anymore.. they gotta be independent..

I use this trick also, so far it working. Once I said i will throw her toys Anne will quickly go and pick up her toy and put at the right place. We just need time to “train” them!

They just love to test our patience, huh? We use this tactic on Belle too.
