Love and Logic Magic for Early Childhood
by Jim Fay and Charles Fay
Love and Logic for under-sixes: the 'uh-oh song', choices, letting small consequences teach, and staying calm. It is short, tactical and the same method scaled down.
Read it if…
you have toddlers and want simple scripts.
Skip it if…
you want a philosophy; it is tactics.
Three things you will actually use
- Give choices you can live with.
- Small consequences early prevent large ones later.
- Calm is contagious.
Do this first
Offer two acceptable choices at the next flashpoint.
Our verdict
The method, for toddlers.
