I thought I was pretty good, but I have learned a lot from Mrs. Bee! Also, a commenter on the blog recommended the book "How to con your kid" and that taught me a lot too:

The newest thing Bee taught me: when Charlie doesn't want to wear his sleep sack at night, then I ask him: "Whose sleep sack is that... is it Daddy's sleep sack? Is it Mommy's sleep sack? Is it Olive's?"

He gets possessive and says, "No, it's Charlie's sleep sack!" And then he forgets he doesn't want to wear it. It's worked a few times this week! Probably not ideal to reinforce his possessiveness like that, but I'll worry about that when he's feeling and sleeping a bit better!

How good are you at tricking your LO? Do you have any techniques to share on how to trick your LO?
