[quote=Anonymous]A couple tips (I have a 2 year old who wears a mask at daycare): Bring lots of masks with you (like 10) because they get wet, gross, and lost. Buy the masks with adjustable pieces on the ears so that it has a chance of staying up on the nose. Wear a mask yourself (even if it isn't required for you). I framed the mask as polite. "It's polite to wear a mask. We are polite." Repeat forever and ever. This worked so well that it back fired on me. When the CDC said we didn't need to wear masks at the playground anymore, my toddler forced us to keep wearing it to "be polite." :) Get cool prints on the mask. Whatever your kid likes, just lean in. Bring snacks on the flight so that you can use that as an excuse if things are really going sideways. (I'm not anti-mask. I'm just anti-tantrum on airplanes.)[/quote]
