Improving Sibling Behaviors Through Play

So our children DIDN’T end up magically loving to share their toys and spend every second together. Hmm… so strange! I’d planned to escape the sibling rivalry phase!

But no, like most baby/preschool sibling sets, once the baby became mobile, squabbles over toys began. My kids have their share of not-so-friendly tug of war with toys, screeching when something isn’t to their liking, or trying to banish each other from their play area.

I had to restore peace and harmony! So I analyzed successful playtime to see what was working and what wasn’t. Check out our favorite creative and cooperative play activities for improving sibling play in my guest blog post over at the Melissa & Doug blog!

What strategies do you use to keep the peace between siblings?
