Can they solve it ALONE?

I can't make this stuff up! While I thought I should interject my adult solution I did exactly as Vicki Hoefle says and kept my mouth shut. I was remembering back to all the times we used everyday situations to teach our kids how to solve problems. Here is a list of some of the "situations" I am taking about: getting bags of groceries from the car to the house, making dinner, shopping, dressing the baby.

As Vicki says, "Good luck, go slow, be patient and have fun." I believe she says this because you don't have to have a master's degree to slow down and notice the small teaching moments in parenting. When I take parenting less seriously I have way more fun.
