It is only 8pm and i have been in 3 times to redress my two year old twins. They have been doig this for the last few weeks and it is doing my head in. They remove there sleeping bags, pyjama's and remove their cot sheets and throw out their teddies. I have bought the older kids sleeping bags with the toddler catch but it is no detterent (sp!) they are still in cots so once they are thrown out they get cold and cry for their pyjames and toys. I have just refused to give their toys back but I doubt they will rember tommorrow. Any tips for keeping them dressed?

Have you tried putting the sleeping bags on back to front? the DT's i nanny did the same thing when they were just 2, remember re-dressing them about 7 times over an hour when they were supposed to be napping, and they would sometimes fall asleep naked and wee in their cot... oh it was a delight! We also stood in the darkened doorway, not enough to be seen well but enough to make it obvious we were there and watching - they would lie down and wait for us to leave, but get sleepy and doze off. 2 or 3 times and they forgot about it. GOOD LUCK!

i would leave them to it tbh! but maybe I am harsh
