twice my preschool-age son went to the Ringling siblings Circus, as well as twice we left at intermission.
Heather serves her kids vanilla yogurt or berries and phone calls it dessert. She routinely steals the chocolate treat from their cocoa servings before they have observed it. Heck, normally she doesn’t even let them drink a full cocoa, she cuts it with milk as well as blames the incredibly hot temperature.
A cocoa this size? That’s for mommy!
We get “all-you-can-visit” membership passes to zoos and museums so we can clear out at the tiniest hint of a tantrum without fretting that we have lost money on single-use tickets.
Are we the meanest mommies around?
I would suggest not.
We just share a approach that little kids requirement whatever in little doses.
An simple example: I would not serve a 2-year old a full surf as well as turf meal as well as ask her to clean her plate. Why would I expect her to take pleasure in a full day at Disneyland? Well, I didn’t!
While we took our huge kid to Disneyland, we left bit sibling at home.
Her day included a see to the Disney store with Grandma. Is that so wrong? She got three healthy meals as well as a long nap, plus time to unhurriedly fondle Snow White costumes as well as stuffed Nemos at her own pace.
At the end of their trips, they both got the age-appropriate dose of Disney (and we saved huge on park admission prices!)
Travel can be full of interesting experiences for kids, however their capability to process entertainment, food, as well as other stimulation is on a smaller scale than ours.
So if you see me eating my daughter’s cupcake at a birthday celebration this weekend, you’ll comprehend why. I do it for HER.
