Oh Man . . . I’m Rubbing Off On My Toddler

I’ve mentioned in recent posts about my proclivity for self imposed rules. Well I think it’s rubbed off on Hanna.

We started using M&Ms for rewards in potty training.  It seems to work quite well, but here’s where she gets a little OCD about the whole thing.

She will ONLY choose the SAME color M&Ms. (she gets 2 for pee and 4 for poop). So when she pees she has to have 2 of the same color M&Ms. (which is ok ~ we’ve been working on colors with this little game).

When she gets 4 M&Ms she will ONLY accept 4  of the same color. We just went in for a 4 M&M trip (yay for her!!) and she started picking orange M&Ms and realized there was only 2 left, threw them back in the container and went with blue M&Ms of which there were plenty.

YIKES.
