I have a little guy, about 18 months old that has a blanky. He holds it constantly. IF he does happen to drop it during play and I move it, he panics walking around the playroom crying like he's lost something. I hid it on him this morning when he wasn't looking for an hour. He was fine for the first 20 minutes, then all he did was cry... like he lost the most important thing in the world. The problem with the blanky is that it drags on the floor. He's started to want it during meal time and fussing at the table if he doesn't get it, so lunch get's cut short because hes disruptive to the other kids. He takes it outside with him and it drags through the grass and the sand. Mom sends a clean one every day... she must have 20 of them!
So, how do I break him of it. How do we get it just down to nap times?
