Frustration Dance

Today I tried out one of the Fishful Thinking activities with Baby Chicklet - Shake off the Frustration Dance.

My entire family really spends too much time watching tv - ESPECIALLY Baby Chicklet. Miss Thang loves her some Hannah Montana and Phineas and Ferb.

Today, I turned off the tv and said we needed to find something else to do.

Meltdown.

Pouty face of historic proportion.

I sat down in front of her. We talked about how crying and getting mad were not going to make me change my mind, and it would just make her feel yucky. Since I know how much she LOVES to dance, I suggested that she shake her groove thing and DANCE instead of getting mad.

At first, no deal.

Then, I danced. I'll spare you the pics, but it got HER to dance!

I'm thinking it worked!

So, around here, we're gonna shake our booties instead pouting and getting mad!

CLICK THE FISH!
