Don’t Chase the Peacocks
And other real things you should never have to say to children but sometimes do
Take your head out of the drawer
Don’t chase the peacocks
Let the frog go
Don’t eat the bug
Take your underwear off your head
Stop pouring milk on the table
Don’t eat the dog food
Take the duct tape off your brother
Climb off the car roof
Don’t put that bean up your nose
Take the toothbrush out of the toilet
Don’t put spaghetti in your ear
Don’t elbow your sister
Get off the table
Don’t carry your brother like that
Don’t unravel the toilet paper
Put the snake back outside
Take your feet out of the pillowcase
Take your head out of the pillowcase
Don’t squeeze the puppy
Take your belly button encrusted finger away from my nose, no I don’t want to smell it
Don’t eat the spider
Take the chalk out of your mouth
Don’t throw the chickens (live ones) while singing “Ah Zabenya” (from the Lion King)
And, sighing, so much more….
