Well last week I went to a Toilet Learners Workshop. Yes, thats right potty training isn't politicially correct term. Children are not animals we don't train them, we teach them. Anyhow it was pretty informative, I got a cool idea on promoting hand washing. You buy two different soaps and have the children wash with one and have you smell to guess which one it is. We have Lavender and Watermelon. Yesterday I put it in motion. Abby comes to me with soap covered hands, and I send her back to wash the soap off before I smelt her hands. Stomping away she starts her melt down, deciding its not worth it I tell her "it's watermelon." She stops looks at me gives me a grumpy face and storms off. She comes back in a few minutes with completely washed and dried hands, so I take a wiff, it's lavender. Very typical of Abby's stubbornness.
