Today  Master K was getting a little cranky as he had been on his sisters iPhone watching videos all morning. He was told to put it up and have a little break from it. He didn’t like that idea. He is a little obsessed with electronics, ( iPads, iPods, iPhones, computers, etc) none of which he owns, they are either his sisters or mine.

I suggested that he build some lego, that he got for Christmas. He has a few unopened boxes of lego to build. He was quite excited about the idea, so of he went and got his lego. We sat down at the table and he started to build his lego. His brother also wanted to help, to which Master K wasn’t to happy about. So he sat quietly on my lap and watched as Master K put each piece together.

He followed along with the instructions, finding the pieces and putting them together, until he was finished. He was very proud of himself when he completed each piece.

A little distraction or change of idea always helps.
