I hate having to wear my mean mommy hat but we're dealing with hitting at the moment. I had to take away all of Miles' bowling pins, his beloved new Christmas toy and he's been crying for his bowling sets but hitting in our house is just plain unacceptable.
We also ordered a book on Amazon.com called Hands are Not for Hitting. I figure if I read it to every night for a couple of weeks it will hopefully drive home the point. I'm not sure if he's picking it up at school or it's just one of those random phases. Sure does test my patience though.
On the flip side, hands are fun for shadow puppets. And I promised Lainie I would learn some new ones for bedtime :) Maybe this link will be helpful for us
