DD2 is 2.10.
This last couple of weeks she has been making eye contact and tipping food from her plate onto the floor. Whole dinners. She is made to help clear it up, we have said "we don't do that" etc and have even resorted to moving her chair away from the table so she can't reach if she is being silly with her plate (after a warning).
It's often in response to something on the plate she doesn't like (not a problem before, we've always had a "if you don't like it you just leave it" policy).
She did it with MY food on Thursday, and a whole bowl of breakfast cereal with milk this morning - not certain why, I looked up from my breakfast to hear the splat as it hit the kitchen floor.
Anybody got any tips?
We are starting a reward chart on Monday for a couple of other things, so might add "good table behaviour" as one of them!
