i was trying to teach him the meaning of hot and was letting him touch the side of the cup to feel hot when he just grabbed the side and plunged his fist straight in..... he cried hysterically for 20 mins (as did i) but i think it was as much from the shock and my reaction:ie grabbing him and flying into the kitchen and shoving his hand into cold water... it seems ok,thank god, but bloody hell it frightend the life out of me!!
Any ideas how to teach the meaning of hot that might be a bit safer????
