    pair the child off with another child that will foster the child's growth

    tell him what you want and make it brief rinse and repeat. Go play with the toys.

    Give choices. play with the blocks or you can read books

    tell enough, no more

    five years old he can comprehend but check the vitals, is he tired, is he hungry, does he need to use the bathroom,

    tell him you can give him a quick hug but that then you must get busy and his job is to go play

    I am sure I have more in the cobwebs.....

    I like to try to find the niche, what the kid likes to do and then start there.

      at five years old this child knows he is being talked to like a baby and he eats it up. Don't go there. Teach the parent how to talk right to the child and the importance of it.

      Another thing I do is put the child in a quiet spot and tell them when they stop they can come and talk with me and play again. My quiet spot is a table with books. I don't make my quiet spot as fun as the regular play room- it gets old there fast.

      Good luck hope these help-
