You're right that these strategies only work for so long and then you have to come up with something novel. I admire the creativity and resourcefulness of parents out there who come up with new distractions. It's a challenge kept interesting by our wily little ones!Some mums are real pros at this. I've seen a friend whip out a surprise toy from nowhere and it's like magic - the crying stops immediately. It's like having a secret weapon, haha! But seriously, each trick only works for a short while before the kid catches on, so we've got to stay one step ahead. As they say, keep 'em guessing!
What other quirky tips do you think might be useful to add to our toolkit?
