15 Thoughts That Go Through a Toddler’s Mind Before They Drift Off to Dreamland
So, I have this video baby monitor because, let’s be honest, I need to know if my kids are actually snoozing or just pretending to be quiet while they plan their next move. They’re sneaky little rascals! After I tuck them in, I find myself peeking at the monitor every few minutes to see what they’re up to.
Sometimes they’re giggling or chatting. Other times, they’re wailing or playing quietly in their cribs. It’s all pretty standard, but what really gets me curious is when they’re just lying there, staring at the ceiling in silence. In those moments, I can’t help but wonder, “What’s going through their little heads?” Here are a few of my guesses:
- Why does Leo the Lion wear pajamas at night but not during the day? Kids notice everything!
- How can I score some candy? Honestly, I think about this too when the clock strikes 2AM and I’m eyeing a late-night snack run.
- What does Mom do when I’m asleep? Probably indulging in some candy.
- How long do I need to behave for a piece of candy? Just give up, kiddo—it’s more like a mom privilege.
- Why does Mom shut the door when she goes to the bathroom while I just let it all out in the living room? You’re still mastering that potty training thing!
- This diaper is so restrictive. I think I’ll just toss it into my sibling’s crib. Adding “duct tape diapers” to my nighttime checklist.
- What’s with all these clothes? That’s a mystery for the ages.
- I hope tomorrow is bath night! Only if it follows spaghetti night. Coincidence? I think not!
- Candy, candy, candy! Enough already, little milk breath.
- I’m not sure what “coffee” is, but it seems crucial to Mom. Please stop spilling it; it makes her sad.
- How old do I need to be to have cheesecake for breakfast like Mom did today? When you’re out on your own—sorry, no sharing here!
- I should remind Mom that grapes are not candy. She needs to get it together! But hey, grapes are like nature’s candy, right?
- Why does my brother have an extra finger down there? Let’s save that chat for when you’re a bit older. More coffee, please!
- Why does that spider keep climbing up the water spout? He must not be eating his veggies.
- I really like Mom. She’s smart, funny, and awesome. I wanna be just like her when I grow up—so I can buy all the candy! Just enough to keep me out of a retirement home, though.
