[quote=Anonymous]" Do you want to wear this pink shirt or this blue shirt?"  "Do you want to put on your pants or for mommy to put on your pants?"  When I dress her I make it kind of unpleasant. 
"Do you want to skip to the bath or be dragged?" She likes being dragged by her feet, go figure. 
And there is a LOT of positive reinforcement. Lots of clapping and saying "great job" for routine things which is annoying but gets her motivated to keep doing it. 
"You found and out on your hat to leave!" Great job"
"You packed your preschool bag! "Thank you for helping!"
"
I try to never  say anything that can be answered with "no" or start anything with "let's or it's time for". It doesn't  work for my dd and it's ignored. Dd is 3. 
And yes routine routine. I'm one of those people that changes out of pjs as soon as we are out of bed, same for dd. She doesn't know she can be in pjs outside of her bed etc. 
always a shower before books and bed. Sometimes the grind of the routine gets me down and it's exhausting  but I always regret changing it up. [/quote]
