We have a rule in our home that we never buy toys for the kids when they are shopping with us. I know the day will come when he will start begging when we are out shopping, but for now he thinks we just go and look at and touch things. Touch wood, so far this has helped us to avoid any meltdowns. Sometimes it's hard, because you see something good and you want to pick it up, but for the most part this strategy is working. My only weakness is books. We often buy books when we are out together. I figure this is a good exception to the rule. Love it!
