If I start the morning off goofy there is a 80% chance she will fall for it and be happy. If not, it's a bribe with TV "if you go potty and brush your teeth and get dress you will have time to watch a little Jake before we leave!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-first-thing-with-grumpy-toddler-in-the-am#post-2402032 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 14:45:55 +0000 teawithpaloma 2402032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I stopped nursing at 20 months my 5:30-6:30am riser would get a little tv in the morning as a distraction. Now I feel like she can't do anything else in the morning besides cuddle and watch a show. She just isn't awake enough yet and doesn't want to eat a real breakfast. </p> <p>So, what do you do first thing with your toddlers to start the day? </p>
