Getting the wiggles out is apparently torture?

[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 63329, member: 3626"] I imagine I wouldn't be too happy being told to do something I know I can't do well and probably have been teased about a time or two, especially not in front of older siblings. No question his meltdown was over the top, but I'm not so sure that a temper tantrum was totally unreasonable given a little one's logic -- better a full meltdown than taking a chance of big bros laughing at me. You might want to teach him how to do jumping jacks in private, doing first the hand part and then the leg part before combining the two. That's what I had to do for my daughter. Another thing you could do is ask him what movement he thinks would work to get rid of his wiggles. For mine, it was 5 minutes of dancing to any heavy metal music (ugh!). [/QUOTE]
