2 year old gets out of bed more than 20 times every night

At my wits end with my kids bedtime! They are 4 and 2 year old. As soon as i close the bedroom door my 2 year old jumps out of bed. I pick her up without saying anything and put her back to bed. Then every few minutes she does it sometimes for over an hour. I then get annoyed and tell her off. Her 4 year old sister doesnt get out of bed but she shouts and shouts for me. I feel I'm doing it right by not speaking to my 2 year old and ignoring my 4 year old who then also loses a treat the next day. What else can i do? Im going nuts here and its pretty tiring walking backwards and forwards for over an hour.

Put the 4 year old to bed later or separately. Let the two year old sleep on the floor. Ignore the behaviour completely.

If two year old sleeps in day try to restrict it. If old enough to understand try a star chart.

Not sure what else really, I'd be claiming the walls!
