Big wipeout for TT

Some days it's harder to use calm feet inside the house especially when you're in the epic battle with little green army men and Star Wars characters trying to fight off the evil pirates and get the one piece back.

I had to remind him quite a few times today to keep using his calm feet but he once again got overly excited and was going to get something and was running and he tripped and fell skinning up both of his knees. So I had to pick them up put them on the counter and clean up his knees and once again remind him how important it is to use our calm feet inside. But he was excited that he got to wear cute Star Wars Band-Aids.

We'll see how long the calm feet last this time.

Maybe superglue his calm feet to the floor and place everything just out of reach???😷

@whowasthatmaskedman why would I do that to my own child

@Cigarguys Clearly you wouldnt. But maybe offering this to your child as a way to solve the issue may cause them to think before acting next time. As in. "If this happens again, I think we will......." Mind you, I did tell our children about their badly behaved elder brother who was buried under the concrete of the front porch. In the good old days you could do things like that..😷

@Cigarguys For the record, my kids are in your age group now. I am aware of the shift in styles..But I still enjoy telling my grandkids about "The Good Old Days"..😷
