Can your 5.5 dc dress him/her self?

Mine still can not. No amount of bribery or encouragement works. If I say to her Beatrice can dress herself (her friend) she just shrugs. I know you're not supposed to do that. It was desperation.

I have a reward chart, but when I put a naughty face up for not even trying to get dressed, she goes into whingemode.

Any ideas.......

she'll get quicker

ds would let me dress him as he's lazy but he is capable and has been dressing himself since he was about 3.5

yes we used to have races to see who could get dressed first

I have an image of you with a stopwatch and a whistle timing your recruit DS.

Kind of a mixture between the Van Trapp family and Sgt Benjamin

if only I looked like goldie hawn circa 1980whenever

he actually says "yes sir, mum sir" and salutes when I ask him to do something in my "stern voice"

He's outside warming up for the assault course as I type

The egg timer is a really good idea. I will get one. (can't believe I have survived wihtout one!)

Well done you and her
