Kid Time

No wonder little kids have no concept of time. Moms everywhere cheat time as a tool to warn their kids that it's 'almost time to leave'. Example: I was at a playground the other day where another mom was trying to get her child to get in the car to go home. So she started off by yelling out "Kyle, this is your last five minutes!" Thirty seconds go by. "Kyle...three more minutes!" Twenty seconds go by. "Okay, Kyle, time to get in the car. Your five minutes are up!"
And I do the same thing!!! I know, I know, I should get a timer and let the beeper go off and be all official and everything, but I kinda like controlling the time so that it suits me, at least until the kids catch on!
