- My 2yo daughter often goes from bed to potty in the morning. She also
- often dawdles about getting dressed. We often take clothes to the
- bathroom and take her sleeper off as she sits down and put socks and
- shirt on while she does her business (or waits to, or kills time
- not...). Not more than a couple minutes, to be sure but it helps.
-
- Also, when the mix of dishes on the table is right, I can clear the
- breakables and let her ferry the rest to me as I begin washing the
- dishes. This works VERY well because Heather LOVES to "help". In
- this case, a little forethought allows her to genuinely contribute and
- gives me some time while I know what she's up to so that I can get
- something done.
