37 Things Toddlers Say to Avoid Going to Sleep

By  21:10  No comments

Putting a toddler to sleep is like running a covert secret mission for the FBI (OK, maybe not, but it sure seems that way, am I right?). If you're a parent, your child likely finds an excuse or two every single night as to why they can't possibly go to bed, and though it's frustrating to spend so much extra time convincing them to close their eyes and go to sleep, their excuses are usually hilarious.

Read through for 37 things a toddler might say to avoid going to sleep.
