Here is a good way to coerce your tots into lifelong positive study habits, make them associate school work with imprisonment. This device literally shackles your tot’s ankle to the ball and chain until the allotted time is up. This was developed by a college student who needed more discipline while studying. He found that he wasted a lot of time getting up to get snacks, watch tv, answer the phone, etc. so this was a perfect solution to staying put and focus on studying. Hmm, I can think of a few ways to waste time without moving away from your desk – napping, reading US Weekly, you can still talk on the phone and snack if you plan ahead, and I have not even ventured into all the distractions available on the computer, including reading blogs =) Perhaps this is better used as a punishment, prison time out. Although, I think that might be an even worse idea. At Curiosite for $115.
