Supernanny…had a great idea!
A few weeks ago I was watching an episode of Supernanny. I don’t watch it often anymore because it seems that she does a lot of the same things with each family. On this particular evening, she was going to help the parents break their son of pacifiers. She talked about the Paci Fairy. The little boy went and gathered all of his pacies and put them into a large envelope marked To The Paci Fairy. Then they mailed it. That night he went to bed without pacies an no fuss. In the morning he awoke to find an envelope with his name and feathers, and streamers and glitter. Inside the envelope were little plastic animals. I decided to give it a try. We changed a couple of things. We placed the envelope full of pacies under our big tree. We came inside and ate 2 M&Ms. Then went back outside. There was a package for Carsten and inside were plastic animals. Carsten got to put them in the box were we used to keep pacies, and before bed he picked out two to take with him. He went to sleep without any problems. Today at nap time we did the same thing. It worked great! We are now DONE with pacies! Hooray!
