    I love LoveEeyore's idea! I might have to try that with the bedtime and naptime routine; that is when we sometimes get tantrums. Also, with pp's idea of the routine, I have friends who swear by picture posters of their routine. There's a picture for each step of the getting ready routine, the bedtime routine, etc., and they point to the next picture on the poster and ask the child what's next, if the child protests then they just say "Oh but the poster says we brush teeth next!" etc. Sometimes having something external like that to point to helps take the power struggle out of it compared to just a parent saying "It's time to brush teeth."
