Today I was re-purposing our daughter's Time Out corner

It's a little alcove in the hallway where a fireplace once stood. We put a beanbag and some blankets there for when she needs to calm down, think things through, or "practise being quiet". I thought as she will turn 15 this month she may have outgrown it. Daughter was not happy and asked me what she is supposed to do when she is in a bad mood and nothing is going right? Idk, lurk moodily at the bottom of the garden like other teenagers 🤷‍♀

Anyhow, the beanbag has now been reinstated. And daughter now has a peace lily and a Swiss cheese plant to keep her company next time she pays a visit 😌

Dad made our upstairs bathroom our time out place. He told us when we are in a bad mood to go in there and light a candle and turn on the shower and the lights off and listen to classical music. He even got a furry cover for the toilet so its comfy to sit. He says falling water creates positive ions that make you feel better. I guess that's why you never see anyone in a bad mood near a waterfall lol.
