Hello!
I've only been open for one month and I have three babies in my care, all under one year old. The babies seem to want whatever toy the next baby picks up and plays with. I understand that this is normal. Is it too early, developmentally, to be working on th concept of sharing? I hate seeing them get frustrated taking toys from each other. They do it all day long. If I see it about to happen, I intervene and try to redirect the current toy thief to something else, which doesn't always work and leads to a meltdown.. Am I wasting my time right now? Should I let them work it out? If not, what are some techniques I could use to help my babies understand? Thank you!
