Great question! If you feel that she is being too playful, then I would stop the paling with her immediately and ignore her. When you stop giving her that attention, she will learn there is a point at which her behavior is no longer appropriate. Once she stops acting too playful, return to giving her attention which reinforces calmer behavior. If you are consistent with this, she will learn that she will get more attention when she is calmer, and she will be ignored when she is too playful.
