My kid and I have this ritual every morning
They ask for hot chocolate
I make them the hot chocolate
They
Don't drink
The hot chocolate
*And scene*

Took my kids to a children museum today and 10/10 would recommend. They played a full 90 minutes running around and burning energy while also somewhat learning.

An important tenant of my parenting philosophy is screen time where you and your kids are being cozy together doesn’t count as screen time, that’s Cozy Time.

Me trying to sneak out of my toddler’s room.
Everyone else’s toddlers ask them to stay in the room with them until they fall asleep too right?
Still this is way better than the “tell me a story” phase because I am not that creative to make up a story every night. 😂

But also you CANT force them to go to sleep so all you can do is create the conditions for sleep and hope for the best.

One thing I didn’t understand about having kids is I assumed, like adults, when they get tired they’d get sleepy and then go to sleep. But kids don’t get sleepy when they get tired, they just get increasing less pleasant to be around until you force them to go to sleep.
