"Giving Directions: What Would You Do?" Activity Scenario 3
ShareCompartir
Your child continues to play with his toy, even after you know you have his attention and you give a simple and specific direction.
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
You say, "If you don't put away your fire truck, you will go to time out." Your child still doesn’t follow your directions. You say, "Dinner is getting cold. Just go to the table".
You pick him up and take him directly to the kitchen table.
You say, "If you don’t put away your fire truck, I will take it away for the rest of the day." Your child still doesn't follow your directions. You take the toy and say, "Because you didn't put the truck away like I told you, you lose the toy for the rest of the day."
