I have 5 little kids and am having a really hard time figuring out how to do TJED without being conveyor belt, my kids ages are 8,6,4,4,1 do you have any ideas for a schedule, I am feeling those overwhelming feelings and need some advice, when I just let the kids do whatever I am doing it is really hard to get the 3 yr. olds (almost 4) to leave us alone or just to be quiet...can you help!
