Thank you to our mom aka lvbeinghome for posting the best advice on the Stay at Home Mom help board this last month. Tonja suggested that a toddler that continually makes messes at the breakfast table should be taught to clean it up themselves. From personal experience at the Stay at Home Mom test centers this method really works - it does take a great deal of patience and some time and even a little cleaning up after the toddler leaves the room but it is all worth it.

Thanks Tonja for writing in with your suggestion. A $5 gift certificate to Amazon.com is on it’s way for your award winning post. You can read lvbeinghome’s post in the section called “Gravity Works”. You can also visit lvbeinghomes personal webpage by clicking here
