The buzzer sounds. The referee blows the whistle and signals a time-out for the team in red. The players sit in chairs and regroup before they can play again.
Children are very familiar with time-outs.
And school-age providers often request discipline as a topic for training sessions. Every so often, caregivers and parents should review their use of time-outs as a disciplinary tool. During these times, adults should support children by remaining calm and helping the child regain control. Calm talk works better than reasoning when tempers flare. It also helps the child feel better about what has happened.
