Tool
#33. Offer substitutes
Definition:
When a child is misbehaving with something, provide a similar but more
acceptable replacement. Teach children to find acceptable ways to act on
their interests.
Example:
A
3-year-old hits the kitchen wall with his father's hammer. His parents
replace the real hammer with one made of plastic. They also provide a small
toy workbench containing dowels that can be hammered like nails. |
