We recently bought the fakest, scraggliest, dinkiest, ugliest 6 foot tall plastic Christmas tree ever. And I don't mean that in a charming way. Not like, "Check out my hipster Christmas tree. It's not cool but it is." No. It's pretty awful. But the kids love it. And they got to hang up their own ornaments, so there's even a bit of personal pride in their eyes when they look at the stupid thing.
The most common threat for time outs has now gone from "if you jump on the couch one more time..." to "if you pull on the Christmas lights one more time..." Merry Christmas! Now sit in time out until I say you can get up.
