my mom was really big on having us write essays. Whenever we mouthed off/whenever we misbehaved, in addition to getting sent to our rooms, we had to write an essay on what we did wrong, why we did it, and what we were going to do to fix it. No essay? no coming out of your room, no tv, no video games, no desert. I guess it was a pretty effective punishment, I can only remember writing 3 of those essays (incidentally my mother still has them!) . Your daughter is kinda young for this, but keep it in mind.
Someone told me that her grandmother used to make her go to confession when she mouthed off and made her talk to "the mean priest". She also told me that he wasn't mean at all and would talk to her like a normal person! hehe
