[quote=Anonymous]We have gone through periods of dressing resistance with my now 4yo, and playfulness often helps calm everyone down. Some things that have worked include: --Playing along with the defiance: Saying in a funny way, "Don't you dare take off those pajamas! You better not put on that shirt, mister!" Lots of giggles ensue as they get to defy you but also make you happy. --My older daughter will play "change the tractor parts" with her little brother, the shirt is the engine, socks are tires, etc. --Sometimes there are hungry clothes, they like to eat legs and arms and tummies nom nom nom (often preceded by pajamas that are sick and barf up said body parts... kids love being gross)[/quote]
