We used MathTango and Endless ABC’s as iPad games to potty train. (sit on the potty and play on the iPad) She was reading sentences before kindergarten. This is mind boggling to me considering I didn’t start reading until second grade. She’s six and thanks to the Hack Packs from Crunchlabs is working on breadboards…. I don’t even know what that is.
Trying to sleep train Liz just made her more angry and she’d stay up for HOURS screaming. Viv actually kicked me out of the nursery.
I just realized I’m wearing the Nanny socks and shoes from Muppet Babies.
Turns out walking through crowds is a learned skill that some kids haven’t developed yet. Especially when they’ve spent half their life away from crowds.
except we have a kid now who uses cleaning up as a stalling tactic and it fucking works.
And I change into pajama pants when I put the kids to bed. Also, I drew the comic wrong. It’s late! I wanna go to bed! Tomorrow I’ll have Liz draw the comic and I’ll go to bed at 7:30pm.
We put a Three Times rule on songs in our house. After three times, you gotta pick a new song.
She emptied all the trash cans in the house for a dollar. First and last payed chore she’s done. Mostly she’d rather get payed in jelly beans.
Figuring out naps is the key to parental sanity.
