Kelley Wilkinson replies: This depends on your family situation and the personality of the child. At Preschool Pals, in a two-day class, the core of the curriculum is taught and practiced.

Kelley Wilkinson shared a few ideas:
*If you’re at the store and your child asks you to buy something, try saying “not today” instead of “no.”
*If your child wants to play while you are busy, try telling them, “we will (read books) in five minutes if you wait patiently.”
*Share the schedule with your child, like this, “First we will (list what you need done), then we can (list what child wants to be done).
