Don’t be fooled by how cute this guy looks-he is quite the disciplinarian and this guy rules our house:
I remember using timers in my classroom when I used to teach (and bells and horns and sometimes flares) and I heard from many double mommas before me how timers work for teaching kids to share and take turns. So I decided to get one with a crown. King Frog rings when we have trouble sharing toys, or when I want my guys to eat lunch and they want five minutes more playing time. He adds one more person in the room and makes the teams even strength-me and him against THEM. Sometimes he’s someone I can pin the blame on-King Frog rang so you have to obey. So far he’s probably about 95% successful, but for under 12 bucks and for the amount of fighting he’s spared, I’m really glad to have him in our home.
