Five quiet minutes if they will stand. Skip if they will not. Dodanduwa will still be there. Do not invent a must-see emergency. A plaque, a wall, a view — none of them need a tantrum. Ice cream after is ordinary. A speech is not.

If they are already melting, sit shade. The steps is not a exam.

Ask them what they actually want. Sometimes it is the dog, not the view.
