DS is 4 and quite a live wire. Tonight I was on Skype to my sister and DS came in and was being very cheeky but fine. He then launched his stuffed hedgehog at the iPad as a joke as he was "throwing at auntie". I told him not to. He did it again. I told him if he threw it at the iPad again he would lose the hedgehog for the night. I've never taken it away. He sleeps with it every night. To be honest I didn't really think it through I just didn't want the iPad to go flying again. He looked square at me and launched it at the iPad again. So I took the hedgehog. He wailed for it for over an hour and I feel awful. I felt like if I gave in at that point the message would be entirely the wrong one. But it is his comfort toy.
