Do they have nap time? do you spend time playing with them or singing abc's or 123's? change thier routine up a lil they or maybe you have a routine for them. kids need a routine of one doesnt work for a week or two try another have fun with it. brothers and sister will always fight mine do not to much but they do.

yes they nap 2.5 hours during the day,they do have routine and they know what will happen the moment they get up,breakfast,readingbooks singing then they have snack and milk,then we watch alphabets on tv and sing after them, till their lunch and afternoon nap,i think u r right they need a change maybe in the routine,the thing is we r new here no  grandparents or relatives around to go to,so we mainly go to park or play areas,i wouldnt take them alone thu,my daughter once threw ahuge tantrum in aplay ground while all other children are playing,my hubby had to watch our boy while i tried to calm her down,we ended up heading home,that is why i dont think i can handle going alone with them,they are starting to get bored at the morning singing and throw themselves on the ground,what other activities u suggest?

yea taking them home after a tantrum is always good i do the same. maybe you can try baking drawing or coloring, those mega legos, dont take all of them out start them with two or three. thing you like to do. maybe play ball with them in or outside depends how much space you have. stickers kids love stickers. my kids play a lot i put toys away that they fight for or make to much of a throwing mess with. but mainly things you like or liked as a kid, cause you are teaching them how to play with these new things. ours right now is baking and cooking.
