My youngest DD, just turned two hates getting dressed in the morning. I have tried letting her choose her clothes, negotiating, bribery, the lot. It just seems to prolong it until I still have to wrestle her clothes on then have 40 minutes of crying and trying to pull her clothes off.
She does have one dress she will happily put on but it is a summer dress and she won't wear a vest underneath.
Anyway, this is mine and DH's plan- We will tell her we are going to get her dressed, we choose her clothes and just put (fight) them straight on her, no negotiation, then just ignore her tantrum. Not look or speak to her until she stops.
Anyone else get any better ideas or advice?
