Did I handle this situation correctly?

Kiddieball game. I am plate umpire. I notice first base coach is standing 2 to 3feet away from the base, call time, motion with my hand, and say "move over". Later in the game, he is standing there again and once again I tell him "move over" and "this is the last time I'm going to say it". Later on I catch him standing there, so I call time, walk up to him, and say "you're gonna have to go to the bench". He goes to the bench and we don't have any problems from then on.

Should I have tossed him rather than have him go to the bench? I didn't want to take extreme measures when he was being much more stupid than defiant. If I eject in these kinds of situations, not a lot of baseball is going to get played.
