I have 3 year olds and I made it very clear to them that it is QUIET time and that they are to watch their movie quietly. They know that it is MY time and that if I hear them, they go immediately into time-out outside of the room so that they miss a chunk of the movie. I deal with any noise immediately so that there's no chance of it escalating to the point where they wake the babies. It only took one time-out when they were all here to have them learn their lesson. p.s. does anyone else find that on days when you only have one older child that it is brutally difficult to keep them entertained? I have a couple of families on vacation and have only one child over 2. I'm making less money and he's constantly bored. boo!
