Re: Hmmm.....
I don't blame you for not wanting to encourage that! What a pain. Definitely say no to the popcorn as that's not fair to the other children anyway. When my mindees try it on with me, I tell them they can have an apple, banana or a packet of dried apricots to tide them over til the next meal (stuff they can grab out of fruit basket and I don't have to prepare in any way, like grapes or oranges which need washed/cut up or peeled). Usually when they find that's all they're gonna get (no biscuits, no popcorn), they stop asking but if not, the extra bit of fruit isn't going to hurt anything.
Why is "phonics" not spelled the way it sounds?
