@17cleo Ahhh haaa haaa!! This is friggin HILARIOUS!!! I love it!
We as parents always gotta be using our Jedi Mind tricks on these little humans to get them to do what we want.
I do it all the time! And they got NO CLUE!!
I've found that if you can turn anything into a game or competition...then they're all over it like diarrhea on a baby's back
One time...I put green painters tape around 4 tiles on my kitchen floor. So it made a square. And I set a timer for 3mins.
I gave both my kids a broom and I said "let's see how much crumbs and dust you can put in the square before the timer goes off!"
If you saw how excited they got and how fast they were moving - You would swear that they were playing a game on Ellen's Game of Games TV show!
The struggle is real yo! We always gotta find any way possible to have the upper hand on these kids!
