Ha! Ha! Oops!

My 3 year old often asks me "What are my options?" because of all the times I've told him he has 2 choices/options. It's a simple way to gain a child cooperation and still get the result that you desire. Do you want to take off your own shirt or do you want mommy's help? Do you want to brush your teeth first or put on your pajamas first? Both things have to get done, but the child has control over which is done when.
