Children will often take you literally. Mrs. Johnson was upset that her daughter’s room was so messy. She told her daughter to pick all the stuff up off the floor. Her daughter picked it all up and plopped it on the dresser, bed, and a chair. Her room was still a mess. Her mom had not been specific in her directions. Children don’t always know what you want them to do. Be very specific in giving them directions. Demonstrate whenever possible what it is that you want.
Have a great day. You are a difference maker.

As a mother of a young daughter(first born) we told her it was raining cats and dogs. She went to the front door and said I don't see any. First borns are very literal. She became a day care director....thanks, jean
