Need help with brushing teeth
How do I get my son to not bite his toothbrush when I brush his teeth?
My son has no problem with letting his dad or grandma brush his teeth. He'll open his mouth wide and be calmly playing with a toy while they brush his teeth. But for some reason I'm having such a hard time brushing his teeth. He'll keep biting down on the toothbrush and be smiling like we are playing and eventually his dad will have to take over finishing brushing his teeth. We've tried brushing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, but that seems to be another game to him too. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

We make a game out of it. We tell our daughter to freeze like a rock or like she's in ice or whatever silly thing we think, then we brag to her stuffed animals and our dog about how we can't believe how still she's staying. Desperate times 🤷🏻♀️
