Right so where do you draw the line between allowing a child to share a toy and asking them to wait until the other child has finished? I'm referring more to toys only one child can use such as ride-on toys as otherwise I'd ask them to play together.

On one hand you have a child who has played with something for a while but is still playing with it. On the other you have a child who is desperate to play with it as well and is getting frustrated that they can't have it.

One particular example is a mindee who sits on a ride-on car at play group and would sit on it the whole time if I allowed. If I ask him to get off he doesn't play with something else, he sulks and stalks that person until they get off then he reclaims it again! But it happens quite a lot during the day where a child wants something someone else is playing with.

How do you handle this situation?
