How To Get Celest To Share?

That day, Auntie Patsy brought Perle over to play with Celest who seems to be possessive of her belongings. Celest threw tantrum by pulling her hair and screaming when Perle touched the toys back. She only stopped once the toys were back in her possession.

Perle had no chance to play the toys as Celest was constantly monitoring Perle's moves. Luckily, Perle is young so she was oblivious to Celest's behaviour or maybe she has a kind heart... If not, we will have 2 screaming tots to handle. How? How? How can I change Celest's bad mentality? Hmm...

Celest is getting tougher and likes to throw her weight, err.. I mean things around. There was once when she threw the 'animal sound book' and hit on Perle's head. Thankfully, Celest did not use much strength or else Perle will be injured.

There was also once when Celest was holding a metal tsp spoon and I had a feeling that she would use it to hit people... I changed her "weapon" to a plastic milk powder scoop before the "attack". True enough, she used it and hit on Perle's head *faint*.. I thought of putting her to play with older kids so that she is unable to 'bully' others but what if the other way round????
