My Bucket of Tricks

This post is for anyone who has a frustrated 1 or 2 year old. Everyday when I'm cleaning the house or just need a break from my boy, I bring out his special bucket of toys. This give him something to do while I'm getting things done. Every week or so I change up some of the toys so that there is always something new for him to play with.
This has helped alot with Thomas's behavior problems. I find that we don't have nearly as many melt downs.

Hi Shannon, I followed you through Lisa's blog. I hope you don't mind. I was checking in to your bucket of tricks. I think I'm gonna try it with my little girl. BTW, did you go to VCS? You look familar to me.

I may have to get me a bucket-o-tricks! Great idea! Thanks for stopping by my blog - I think it was last week- I have been a lazy blogger lately and not reading or commenting!
