Getting kids to go to sleep is a tough job. But it’s especially difficult when your baby will not settle down until he has his special bedtime comfort object: a mannequin head. Yup, for Ilarni Clark’s 14-month-old, Harry, the bedtime ritual isn’t complete until he can run his hands through the hair of a startlingly realistic mannequin head?and it’s just as unsettling as you’re imagining.

Good night god bless

You’re probably (and quite understandably) wondering how this came to be.
“It started because Harry wouldn?t settle unless he was twiddling with my hair. He?s done it since he was a baby,” Clark said. ?I couldn?t leave him with his dad, because he doesn?t have any hair to play with and he just wouldn?t sleep at all.? This isn’t an uncommon issue. Babies are grabby when they’re learning to use their hands, and anyone with long locks who has ever held a little one has felt that yank on their scalp, right" It makes sense that some babies?especially those who were breastfed by moms who have long hair?associate the feeling of hair in their hands with comfort and security.
