i love using #heavywork when my kids are wildin' and i know things are about to go downhill. it's SUCH a helpful #emotionalregulation tool for my 3 year olds: my go-to move is to ask them to build something with our bulky couch cushions, but what's most important is that it's something your child will find fun (this is NOT punishment so treat it like a game!). a few other ideas: 💭 fill a tote or backpack with big books and ask them to drag it across the room and put them away 💭 jump on the bed
