I'm so lost as to what to do with my group of 4-5 year old girls.
I have 5 that are between the ages of 3.5 and 5 and the bickering and fighting has been terrible the last few weeks.
Someone is always been excluded or picked on, they team up on each other, say they don't like each other and will never play with each other again, won't invite them to their bday party, etc.
We've had sit down after sit down as a group and have talked about how to treat others, speak to others, include others, etc. and the minute it's over someone is at it again. I address everything that happens, as it happens and ask them to tell me how they could have handled the situation differently but I just don't see it working.
I'm at a loss. How do you handle the cattiness of girls? These girls can seriously be the most loving, caring, compassionate little girls but when they get angry at each other watch out. They have already learned what hurts "I don't like your hair", "I don't like your clothes", etc. and are relentless when they are upset.
