Teach the children how to talk to each other about what “bugs” them. For example, one child asks, “May I give you a bug and a wish?” The other child says, “Yes, you may give me a bug and a wish.” Teach them that they cannot say “no” to this request! The first child says, “It bugs me when you... I wish you would....” For example, “It bugs me when you grab my blanket. I wish you would use your own blanket.”
