How do you get a toddler out of the dryer?


Last night, Jaden wouldn't get out of the dryer. I was washing sheets and went to transfer the wet stuff into the dryer, but Jaden climbed in first. I kept trying to reach in to pull him out, and he was just screaming, "no!" at the top of his lungs and kicking his feet. He was all the way to the back, and it seems like it would have been easy to just reach in and grab him, but it wasn't - at least not without banging his head and pulling him by the limbs. So, I finally just squatted down in front of the dryer to look at him and see what he wanted to do in there so bad? Nothing. He just wanted to sit in there. So after a couple minutes he said, "get out," and crawled right out. I SO wished I had a camera. You should have seen it. Little stinker.
