Certainly dont use a room - if it is the child's bedroom they just get used to playing with toys available and dont mind being told off.
The step is a good idea, but it's a good idea to teach them to say "sorry mummy" at the end. Usually the time goes 1 minute for each year of their life. Certainly 2 is not too young.
My friend's grandaughter turned two this week and put her doll on the bottom stair. My friend observed her leave it there a short while and go back later, wag her finger at the doll and say sternly "say sorry mummy". She then proceeded to pick the doll up and give it a hug. Clearly mummy always hugs the little girl once she has said sorry. It seems to work.

I started using it at about 2 but i don't think you should send them to their room. I didn't want my boy to associate his room with being naughty so i used the naughty step. it worked for a while about 3 years, now he is 5 it doesn't seem to have the same effect. i am looking for a new method. i try reasoning with him now and talking about his behaviour. I remember a health visitor advising me to start at 1 but i felt this was far too young as he didn't really have a concept of right and wrong then.

I started using the naughty step with my daughter when she was nearly two. I had always tried to point out right and wrong up until then and it usually worked. Once she hit two she began to develope a tough little obstinate streak and pointing out rights and wrongs was no longer working, so I began with the time out and the naughty step. It took a while but we got there eventually.

Whats a "naughty step/room"?

around 3/4 years i think....that way you will be disciplining the child....if the child is naughty then eventually they will tire of being put in the naughty step room and it will make them think more carefully before throwing a paddy, be firm but gentle...and also keep checking on the child say once every five minutes until he/she is calm again, it takes time and patience...bare with it because it does work

i think that around age 2 is a sturdy time to introduce the naughty step. even however your toddler won't talk lots, he nevertheless can understand lots greater. And right here's a reliable tip! shop your toddler in timeout as many minutes as their age. shop it short and straightforward! And whilst my infants come out of day out the 1st ingredient I do is kneel to them, provide them a huge hug and tell them i admire them. That re-assures them that i'm no longer mad at them, in simple terms their movements and that no remember what they do i visit continually love them.provide the naughty step a attempt. i'm specific you will see a huge progression on your youngster's habit. reliable success!
