[quote=Anonymous]I just say very clearly “we wear masks when we go to X’s house” or “kids have to wear masks in this store.” I let her get/pick her mask. I don’t explain past what I’ve said very simply. I don’t explain why we’re doing it or why in some cases mom doesn’t have to. I think that’s actually more confusing at her age than a simple instruction. If she take it off in a place like a store I say we need to put the mask back on because kids have to wear masks in this store. She usually puts it right back on but sometimes she doesn’t so I say “it sounds like you need a mask break. In one minute I will be putting your mask back on.” She usually puts it on herself but if not, I do. I know it does not sound like rocket science when described. but as long as I give her a clear expectation and consistently back it up she does not seem to have problems whatsoever. She’s 2 and a half.[/quote]
