The neighbours grandchild gave gabbi a blow up beach ball yesterday which was very nice of her but if ive blown up that ball once today ive done it 20 times,think i mite hide it when she goes to bed tonight lol,she lets me blow up then then sits there taking the air back out then we repeat process lol
 
Or... maybe it got a pin hole in it... Wooops! :-)
 
how old is her? (I totally forgot) Explain to her that if she takes the air out the ball goes bye bye because she can't play with it. She will take the air out the first time. Then don't blow it, just tell her it's out of air and it doesn't work. She will cry, be strong!!! LOL!!!! Take her to play with something else, in a few hours ask her if she wants the ball but explain to her about the ball going bye bye for sure next time she pulls the air out. She may or may not do it, but if she does trash it or hide it. She will get it, Bianca did that and we did this and she learned the cause effect.
 
Oh my! I just cannot stop picturing karen with a red face blowing up that beach ball all the time...LOL Karen I think Dalis's advice might be worth gold! If it doesn't work you can always throw it away!
 
Up to this date, Bianca sees a little one trying to take the air stopper on a beach ball and she tells them "No, no, no, it will go bye bye".
 
I think Dallis advice is sound till it comes to a hot tempered red headed 2 year old maybe ill send her to you to sort out lol,I think we may of misplaced the ball now and I'm glad I'm not the only wicked mom he he
 
ya know i was lying on bed today and she was downstairs with rhys just as i posted my last comment she comes in the bedroom going mom mom when i looked she had the beach ball noooooo!!! return of the dreaded beach ball
 
I had to hide all of our beach balls until my youngest was old enough to blow them up himself. Suddenly it wasn't so fun to let the air out! You have my sympathies!
