Speedy bedtime trick

Speedy bedtime trick

If my kids take ages to go upstairs to get ready for bed, I race them. I just yell, 'Ready or not, last one up is a silly monkey!' and slowly head for the stairs. They always rush past me and run to their rooms to change. They love racing and somehow I'm always last. Except when Mike's home, I make sure he's the last one up the stairs!
