The room is littered with toys to the extent that there is no way you can put your foot down without stepping on to something and going...OUCH!!!
DM: D, Let's put away the toys now, it is time to sleep.
D: Noooo!!!!
DM: It is late, I am going to sleep.
D: Amma sleep, D not sleeping, only playing...Amma jaa bhaag!!!!! (jaa bhaag = get lost) ~X(
DM scratches her head and tries to think out of the
Eureka moment strikes!!!
DM to Mimi (my mom): Mimi let's fill the toys in the bag. Only Amma and Mimi, D noooooo!!!
D feeling challenged: Only D filling the toys.
DM: D don't touch the toys now.
Here, the brat jumps right in and quickly starts picking up the toys and packing up his bag.
DM surveys the cleared up room....
End Result B-)
This is a scene that is repeated everyday in the D household and has worked successfully, this far :D
