Whack-A-Mole

The Kindergarteners just started staying in the afternoons. They haven't learned appropriate lunch behaviour yet. Their little bodies keep popping up at the tables, and one day I had this wild image of a giant Whack-A-Mole game.But I'd never whack them with a mallet! Just a gentle verbal reminder to "sit down and eat your sandwich, please." I wonder how many times I say that in 15 minutes!

Kinda of like when I helped teach Sunday school?
I had to bite my lip not to tell those kids to sit down and shut the *&%^ up!!!

Take the number of children in the class and multiply it by eleventy squillion. That's how often you told them to sit down.
