Distraction distraction distraction!! If you make a big deal about her doing it she will do it even more. Everytime you see her doing it just try getting her to use her hands to do something else, e.g. playing with a toy or helping you. Just try not to mention the fact she is picking at her head :) by TheNurseryNurse

Have you tried the naughty corner/step? by Dolcemomo

knee patches, and make them as unfashionable as possible, won't stop the first pair of trousers getting holes in them but will make him think twice before ruining the next pair :) by sim

Two good possibilities. It's difficult when falling on the ground after scoring the winning goal in the world cup and boys seem to go hand in hand. Alternatively, we could just make him wear shorts all year round! Thanks. by guy1067

I had to wear shorts at school till I was 12, even in the middle of winter when it was snowing, I would have taken the knee patch option for sure. by sim

It was the same growing up for me in NZ. I'm not sure if knee patches had made it to NZ by then? Cofacio becoming a chat service as well. by guy1067

a lot of threads carry on yes, to help with this we're developing a notification panel rather like you have on facebook so people can leave the window open and be notified without having to check their mail. by sim

Definitely knee patches, easy to put (just iron them, you don't need to sew) and very fashionable (perfect for a cool outfit!!!). Just be sure that this kind of "incident" is because he's playing... sometimes kids have interesting ways to catch our attention... by isabel

I would suggest that you put an iron-on interfacing patch on the inside of the knee of the trousers. by lizroz

Have you got the trousers? Is it just the top and head scarf? Have you tops for underneath? by bad_housewife
About 1 year ago
Yes have plenty of trousers. Just the top and head scarf will be good but would like the top to be long enough then it can be worn as a dress too! by audrey

Oh good, as sleeves can be bothersome.Are you after haute couture or quick and simple? by bad_housewife

Just top with no sleeves and a cardigan will be fine! by audrey

I think at this age they adapt pretty well. My 5yo has had 3 new starters in his class in the past few months and they seem to have settled in quickly. They haven't formed 'cliques' yet so are more accommodating IMO. Good luck! Are you moving house as well? by soosy

Yes, it's all change, we're off to Asturias so looking forward to weekends on the beach and trips to the mountains by sim

I think your daughter will be fine. All of ours have settled in really well. I also think, if you are as settled as you can be, this will also help her feel settled. She'll take her queue from you. by guy1067
