Time Out

“I’m sitting in the Time Out chair, because my mother put me there.” This is the first sentence of the book, “If I were a Lion” by Sarah Weeks and is a family favorite in our house. When I read this book to my kids, it makes me smile. The main character is a little girl who gets in trouble and compares herself with animals in a zoo. Sometimes I feel like I live in the zoo and I am the zoo keeper, yet the “animals” don’t listen… which leads me to a product that I recently saw at Kidproteq.

It is a “Time Out” mat to use when the children haven’t listened. It is a thin, bendable mat that has the words “Time Out” printed directly on it. The mat is easily transportable to a playdate or grandma’s house. And, you could even take it with you on vacation! What a great solution for the misbehaving “animals” in your life.
