The 5 4 3 2 1 count

I find that when my 2 and 3 year old are playin up I will tell them what they are doin is not acceptable, then I tell them that if they haven't stopped by the time I get get to 1 then they will go to bed so i start counting backwards from 5...4...3.....2....1 usually by the time I've reached 2 they have stopped miss-behaving!
