Can anyone please tell me how I can keep my kids busy so that they can’t get on each other’s throats irritating me in the process the whole day? The only sore spot (of two actually) that I get to have everyday is when my kids get difficult - Matthew throws a tantrum and picks on his sister or the other way around - Martha picks on her brother and throws a tantrum. The problem with my kids is that they are generally pleasant all day - until evening starts. Martha gets all hyper (remember Matthew is gone most of the day so all is quiet in the house) when Matthew is just going zonkers because of tiredness (He is supposed to be an early sleeper).

I think the only way to keep them actually looking forward to sleeping time is to wear them out all day. I think we need to walk around to my parents’ place more often. If we had a pool, that would be easy - they would just swim all day. Shasta Pools would be an easy choice for me. They recently went green - they sell energy efficient pool pumps so Im sure I can save on electricity. The costs can be reduced from as much to 30-90% - that is huge savings. They also do pool repair and have extended warranty so Im safe.
