Hello!

I was wondering what other people do to discipline their children. We used the naughty mat then moved to the naughty corner for our 2 year old. He is not a bad child but at the moment he won’t stop throwing all of his toys and putting him in the corner doesn’t seem to do nothing any more he just comes away smiling. Any other suggestions and any tips on how to discipline a 2 year old?
