Thanks for the mental picture, though--maybe it will help if I can imagine that when the kiddos get too loud?<BR/><BR/>I do like the idea of a whisper challenge, though...that might be worth a try...(though I really don't know that they could do a whole 10 minutes).Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17218673910023981967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7317174463059973319.post-76278797599670013972008-03-09T20:45:00.000-04:002008-03-09T20:45:00.000-04:00LOL.

Our youngest, is our loud talker, and if my kids are talking to loud, I just yell really loudly, "Shut up!" :) <BR/><BR/>Just kidding, I think proper modeling is the key here. It sounds like you aren't loud and this rubs off on them. Their friend sounds like he comes from a louder household and that probably (no expert) makes him louder naturally. Anyways, just make sure your kids know that they need to act like themselves and let them know you are aware that they are acting different. My first suggestion anyways. Second suggestion is a muzzle. ;)Joeprahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15249876940389431970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7317174463059973319.post-65295908476699475952008-03-08T17:25:00.000-05:002008-03-08T17:25:00.000-05:00My kids are loud too!

What we do for both kids is when they are talking too loud, we make them whisper, for like 10 minutes. Sometimes longer, until they take the hint! This way, they work their noise level up from a whisper and things stay quiet for longer.Pinching Abehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049699112785811449noreply@blogger.com
