Hot Cocoa Kit HOW-TO MAKE A HOT COCOA KITby Destri of The Mother Huddle There just isn't much that a three year old can create that isn't something only a mother would love. I thought and thought about what my little boy could make his friends for Christmas and finally came up with a Hot Cocoa Kit. Over the course of a week we worked on little projects to add to the kit, and I can't tell you how much fun we had with it. If you find your kids getting restless for the big day to arrive this would be a great project to tackle until it comes. HOT COCOA KIT You may choose to only add one or two elements to the kit, but I will give you a list of what we used. Supplies: • hot cocoa • almond bark or chocolate chips • candy canes and sprinkles • coffee creamer, cinnamon, nutmeg • plastic spoons • marshmallows • mug • various containers and baggies to package Set The Stage I have learned that my son has a max attention span of about fifteen minutes. Chocolate and Peppermint Spoons Nutmeg & Cinnamon Creamer
How do I speed up my dawdler? Grade-schoolers who move at a snail's pace can — and should — learn that tardiness has consequences. Your goal is to encourage your dawdler to take charge of this area of his life. That way, he'll learn that no matter how much he likes to putter around the house, some things — like getting to school on time — simply aren't negotiable. You can do your part by making sure that distractions are kept to a minimum when you're trying to get out the door. If the TV's turned off, his toy trains are put away, and his brother isn't trying to best him in a game of hoops, he'll be better able to focus on getting ready. By letting go of this responsibility, not only do you get to stop nagging, you'll put an end to the power struggle that dragged out your son's dawdling in the first place. My six year old daughter & I created a chart that notes the time of each morning "activity" with a photo of her doing the activity. posted 10/22/2007 by fly mama 221 out of 254 found this comment helpful Thank you!
