babies and TV's

Are you telling her no everytime she does it ? You gotta teach her about things that you dont want her to touch! Mine still touches it sometimes but for the most part she leaves it alone cause i kept at her, no dont touch, eyes only!

I would tell her no and slap her little hand. It takes consistency. At this age they are determined and you have to make it so it's not worth it to her. If that means she has a bright red hand for a bit, then so be it, but hopefully she'll learn sooner than later. I will tell you though, that it's still a fight here in our house, although now, that my youngest is almost 1 1/2, if I tell him no, he'll usually obey after the first or second time, b/c he doesn't want his hand smacked. There are still certain things that he just loves, like he always seems to find the car keys (even when I can't find them, to put them up) and sets off the alarm at 6:00 in the morning, I'm sure my neighbors love it! (: Also, If you don't like to smack her hand, you could try a time out in her crib, although I find it less affective, some people opt for that instead of the hand smacking, at her age, I wouldn't do it for too long though. We use it for my son when he throws food at the table, and is throwing a fit when he is supposed to be eating. Good luck to you!

when my son is out of the crib, he's more interested in walking about and peeping on cabinets, drawers rooms and in pushing chairs and anything he carry around. we always tell him no when he starts to push buttons such as the tv or the electric fan. when he's in his crib, we put the tv on playhouse disney channel so he can watch the shows he like. this would also be entertainment for him for a few hours so he wont be bored.
