A toddler does not need to say
"mummy, mummy, MUMMY!" when they want your attention.
A toddler can be taught to interrupt quietly,
with their lips closed,
and one hand on your arm or leg.
They can be taught to wait quietly until you look at their eyes
and give them your full attention.
This teaches them patience and
respect for the person mummy is speaking to (in person or on the phone).
Practice this in the form of a role playing game,
keeping it short, light and fun.
Your toddler will catch on in a few weeks.
Making life more pleasant for all!!
