fun ways to get rid of rhe pacifier?

Question

i do not want to cut off the end of it, dip it in some thing, use the pacifier fairy, giving them santa or easter bunny or through them out.

Answer 1

Take him to one of those public restrooms that have the super-duper strong flushing toilets and flush it.

Answer 2

How old is the one with the pacifier? This kinda helps decide the how's or whys.If it's a good choice for the child. How to do it, Is it used in habit, a sense of security and/or a sense of contentedness. Kids develop quite a bond with these Binky's!
My First son loved his binki. As he got older we had binki rules, we didn't want his speech to be impaired, learning to talk with one in his mouth. We did a lot of creative things, until he only needed his binki at night. It was kept under his pillow, then he just stopped using it.

Answer 3

I tried to get my boy started on pacifiers when he was 2 weeks old....he's a year old now and he still hates them. I'm serious. I must have bought 6 brands of pacifiers and the longest time he spends on each of them is 4 seconds.

Answer 4

We are starting to get rid of our pacifiers, my daughter is 21 months old. During the day her pacifier needs to sleep. when she wakes up, I tell her to put pacifier night night, she puts them on her pillow and covers them with her blanket...we do not see them again until bed time...when I feel she is ready for the next step, I will have her put them in the trash for "Big Girls" do not need pacifiers. (This will not happen until we are done with our travels the middle of Feb. Never try something new on the middle of vacation time)

Answer 5

what a great question and some really fun answers.
My friend had a daughter that was 2.5 before she agreed to let her paci go. My friend took her to a mailbox place and let her daughter fill out the form (color on the envelope) and then the agreed that they paci's would be mailed to the baby dinosaurs. Her daughter was into anything dino. at the time. The woman behind the counter played along and took the package and threw it away after they left. But to this day her daughter knows or thinks that she mailed them to the baby dinos.
whatever works!

Answer 6

Someone once told me that they took their child to a build a bear workshop! The child picked out a bear and they put the paci's inside! The child gets to step on the button to "stuff" the bear, make a wish, and put a heart in it! I thought that was a great idea and will do it if I can't get my child to give hers up! :)

Another way I heard (although not safe environmentally speaking!) is tie them to a bunch of balloons and let go :)

Answer 7

My momma said the pig stole my bottle. It could work for a pacifier, but only if you had pigs. You could always take a trip to the zoo! Tell em the monkeys took it!

Answer 8

Leave him/her alone until they are ready to get rid of it. My son bit a large hole in his at about 18 months and handed it to me to fix. I told him it was broken, and that I was not buying another one and that he needed to throw the broken one away. He looked at it, looked at me, looked back at it, and then walked to the trash and threw it away. That was the end of the pacifier, and it was not replaced with a thumb or anything else.

Answer 9

For myself and my sister our pacifiers were throw in the garbage before we could talk, there was no trouble. But when taking us off the bottle I asked for it once, she told me it simply wasn't there and I never asked again. For my sister, she told her that the sheep took it (there were sheep around). Next morning my sister got mad at the sheep for stealing. (We both walked and talked before a year old).

Cut it down to say going to sleep only, then not at all.

Answer 10

I told my son that he was a big boy now and that the dog would really like his dummy because she was a still a baby. He opened the door and threw it to her. The dog destroyed it in front of him. He got angry at the dog for a day or two but he knew it was gone forever. It was so much easier than I thought. He told everyone "the dog ate it".

Answer 11

I don't think there's any fun way.

If you can arrange for it to be "lost" in the morning, you and your child will have all day to be "looking" for it, so he/she will have time to think about not having it before bed times comes around.

As bedtime gets near you can say, "It will turn up, but I guess for now you'll have to go to sleep without it."

The "looking for it" will only have to last for a couple of days before it pretty much gets forgotten.
