I take it she's at morning kindy? Maybe bring her home, give her lunch & put her down for a sleep for a short period? Stuff DH lol, you're the one who's dealing with it in the arvo. But she might not want to go to bed at a reasonable time?

Christ kids are hard, why don't they have individual self modifying instruction booklets that we can read!

Also I wonder if she's getting pushed around at kindy by some of the other kids & in turn is taking it out on her brother? Could you stay & observe or ask the teachers about it?]]> Thu, 12 Feb 2009 21:55:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=613096&title=kindy-monster#613096 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : Haha I&#039;ve got a son at school...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=612381&title=kindy-monster#612381 Author: jjands

Haha I've got a son at school too so I had that starting school thing last year  least that was just attitude not this physical stuff. She wasn't so bad when she got home just grumpy at everything. I still thinks she needs afternoon naps and she was having them until she started kindy again but DH doesnt think she should be having them at that age. She's awake all through the night which I think is why she's so tired too...but I don't know why? She doesn't make a noise or anything she just lies there and DS has been caught out of his bed mucking around the last 2 nights too...during the day they are so tired with big bags under their eyes I'm lost]]> Thu, 12 Feb 2009 11:04:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=612381&title=kindy-monster#612381 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : She sounds like she is either...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611902&title=kindy-monster#611902 Author: busymum

She sounds like she is either overtired or missing one on one attention with you. Has she just started kindy for the first time or did she also go last year? Is it posible to reduce her kindy hours for a few weeks/the first term until she gets into routine etc? My 5yo still needed an afternoon nap at 4yrs.]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 19:47:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611902&title=kindy-monster#611902 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : It might be the weather & overtiredness...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611787&title=kindy-monster#611787 Author: AandCsmum

It might be the weather & overtiredness from Kindy starting back...I'll warn you now...you'll get it next year at the start of school as well. I have a monster at home yet the teachers are so praising of her ]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 17:17:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611787&title=kindy-monster#611787 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : I would say not sleeping well...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611292&title=kindy-monster#611292 Author: caitlynsmygirl

Cuddles then a talk about her behaviour ,thats what id do , thats what I DO do , and it always works for me and C ]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 10:10:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611292&title=kindy-monster#611292 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : she&#039;s 4 I was just shocked...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611270&title=kindy-monster#611270 Author: jjands

she's 4 I was just shocked she usually gets grumpy but not like that. She's not sleeping very well at the mo so that is probably part of it. So proud of DS not buying into tho]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 09:56:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611270&title=kindy-monster#611270 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : how old is she ? usually when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611261&title=kindy-monster#611261 Author: caitlynsmygirl

how old is she ?
usually when C plays up like that , its because she is tired or overtired and ive found the best thing is a cuddle with mum , they just need a few mins to chill out and calm themselves down .
Even the big kindy kids, are still babies too ]]> Wed, 11 Feb 2009 09:54:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24457&PID=611261&title=kindy-monster#611261 <![CDATA[kindy monster? : where&#039;d my girl go?

where'd my girl go? She turned into a monster this morning..yeh she's been grumpy but this morning I woke up to her telling her big brother to make her bed for her or she wouldn't make him a picture  he was great just said no thanks and went down stairs, then she was yelling about her watch and then she she wanted the book DS had, she ran at him, pushed him and snatched it!  then of course I took the book off her and put her in a time out....so she screamed her head off  My kids have never done this stuff before...
