I discovered a good website that is very helpful for teaching children some basic morality, integrity and manners.
It is a movement called "Smile And Move' and there is a story in the website that you can download and read to your child. Ace loves the story and now, when we discuss about his tantrums, there is something I can use as a guide for him.
He knows that to Smile and Move, he need to be happy and do the right thing. So I will ask him and go through one by one if this thing is a smile a move thing to do.. and slowly, through the discussion of what it means to smile and move, he is able to understand what he can or cannot do. What he should or shouldn't do.
You can try it too:)

The Smile and Move principle is a very simple one that Ace has accepted into his life and a great reminder to take life as a happy boy!
