So, DS LOVES coloring now, and does a good job with crayons. Problem comes when the crayons break. He is somewhat of a perfectionist and throws a fit when a crayon breaks. Some relatives, and cousins have tried appeasing him by trying to fix it using tape and the fit resumes when the fix is broken which is expected. I have not done it thus far. I have been maintaining all along that crayons break because that's how they are, but it doesn't mean you need to stop coloring, they still work and they still have the same great color. I also tried referencing a Daniel Tiger's neighborhood episode where Daniel's cake gets smushed and is unhappy but his dad convinces him that however his cake looks which understandably makes him sad, it still tastes great. But DS so far is not willing to accept it (moreover, his is not as much in Daniel Tiger's neighborhood so it doesn't seem to have any effect). I am wondering if there is a different way of dealing with it. Any ideas? Thanks.
