Time-out: a disciplinary technique that deals with misbehavior in a physically non-violent way. The child that misbehaves is lead to a quiet part of the room (away from the group, if the child was just part of one), an area sometimes taped off on the floor. The caregiver explains the misbehavior to the child, and they encourage the child to reflect on the action for a few minutes. After that, the caregiver returns and asks how the child feels, and discusses the incident. The child is then led back to join the group, or returns to the previous activity.
