Kiddies Lightshow

My youngest daughter has this thing about bed, she hates it at bedtime yet is impossible to drag out of it in the morning. Drag the covers off and what does she do? Yep, uses the pillow as a blanket. Put ice cold water down her back? She just waits until it warms up a bit then rolls onto her other side...

Even ice cubes are of little use (but lots of fun).

When it was Amethyst's birthday a week or so ago, we gave Breeze a small battery powered single colour disco ball as a "not your birthday" present. Now she needs it on when falling to sleep and can't understand why it doesn't work after a few hours (dead batteries). Still, it keeps her quiet and relatively calm (which for my kids is a blinking miracle).
