At 1.5y, diversion has started to loose its power when having to stop playing or having to leave toys. Luckily I found out that “saying goodbye” is extremely effective. It gives the kid an understanding of what is happening (we are leaving) and a moment to process the loss. So now every time we go home from the playground we say goodbye, even if there are no other people around.

The little wave and "buh buy" are also very cute

I try to avoid bringing that website too much, but you do you!

@[email protected], not that I don't appreciate these posts, mostly just curious, but why do you continue to make regular posts if you do not have children?

Simple answer: because if I don't, who will?

Also, I'm planning to have children at some point in the future, so always interesting to have a few pointers ahead
