Adam sent me a link to a time-out trick, which I immediately ran out and bought the supplies to create.  We've been doing it for a little over 24 hours now, but I'm totally sold on it.  Sit the offender in a chair, shake the bottle, set it down, and they're not to be released from timeout until the glitter settles (which, for the one we made, is about a minute).  It not only gives a specific and clear amount of time, but it gives them something to focus on and something to calm them.  Plus, we had fun making it!
