Nasty mummy took aaaaalll the toys away...

Yep I did.

They haven't noticed yet because they are glued to a movie on my laptop. Which I did not put on for them, they snuck inside and did it themselves :rolleyes:

They both won't help tidy their rooms so - GONE GONE GONE!

Stored in the back unit, out of reach until they get the gist of tidying their rooms each morning. I've been a bit tied up this week and last week and its gotten out of control. I can't live like this - just cos there is a bump in the road the whole place implodes and looks like little hobos live here.

So if you live in Vic and hear screaming within the next hour you know who it is.....I'm putting in ear plugs in anticipation :)

Love your work hun !!! Is that faint screaming I can hear from here? ;)

:ROFL: you go girl.

IM getting the 'naughty bag' back out tonight for the saem reason.

ETA - Naughty bag is a clear bag that I hang up with their most prized toys in until they either listen and do as I ask or it goes to the op shop

*sniggers*

I'll keep an ear out.

nice one
we did this with cody about 12 months ago, just culled and hid everything he came home from school empty room. lets say it worked, no more tidy your room etc etc every saturday. its once and its on his list of things to do and it gets done. maybe not to how id like but it gets done and the toys are in boxes bgehind his door and when i open his room it looks tidy, good enough for me,

LOL you always amuse me Lulu!

You think we'll hear the aftermath from the Gold Coast? LOL

*giggle* that's just the height of evil, that one!

I keep on meaning to do this. Good on you for taking action :)

:rofl: I did that to DD once too.

Yes I have threatened this one before but never actually done it good for you my house is the same at the moment and nobody is doing their chores so they better start helping or im doing to do it too....

Good luck with the screaming hahahaha

DD1 has sooooo got this coming to her soon....

1 of Sarah's dolls is still on the top shelf of the Garage cupboard because Daddy put it out of my reach. that was months ago!!

LOL Jasp. Will keep an ear out for your precious one!

have they noticed yet lu?

My mum did that to me! It remains one of my most vivid childhood memories. After weeks of threats she went into my room with a rubbish bag and everything that wasn't away nicely was chucked out. I was frantically darting ahead of her rescuing all my toys lol. It didn't make me keep my room tidy, but as soon as she threatened a repeat I was in there like a shot to clean it up lmao.

My hero......:clap:

Ooooo Lu, this is what I do. But I do it in full view and with the outraged screeches of a three year old to accompany me, just to add to the drama. It's amazing hwo quickly toys get tidied up for the next week...!

Alternatively, toys must get tidied before something else (desired) is given over. Snack, TV show, another toy, whatever. That works even better, because the motivation is positive and my voice gets a rest.
