putting the chairs in their place

As you may have read, Zippy likes to climb on the chairs and onto the table.

Unfortunately, she likes to throw stuff off the table too.

So I decided, "no more zippy's climbing on the chairs!!"

One evening, every time she tried to climb on the chairs, I said "no", and pushed the chair against the table so she couldn't climb it.

Now when she is about to climb a chair, I say "no", and she promptly pushes the chair up against the table so that she can't climb it.

Either she's a well behaved kid or she's just waiting for the right moment . . .
