One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk.
Some say it's the vibration from the car, others say it's the time away from any distractions such as TV, Video Games, Computer, IPod, etc.
Either way, my kids usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together. Eye to eye contact helps a lot too.
I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case you would like to use the technique.
Sincerely,
Your Friend

Oh Denise.. I sure needed that today! (chuckle chuckle). I was actually discussing different ways to discipline with my friend the other day and we were talking about spanking. What an interesting alternative idea! ha ha
ha!
Hilarious.
he he . . . I should have guessed from the "eye contact" part . . .
Nice...I guess I should have tried that yesterday instead...
That's hysterical! You've made my day :).
Oh. . . wouldn't that just be cathartic sometime?
