Hi, It's better to use "to dress": My husband dresses my son while I make breakfast. Note-We can't use reflexive pronouns with this verb: I usually dress in black. But for children,we can: My son is 3,but he can dress himself. Hope that helps, Morteza |

Some widely used English sayings used when clothing their children.
" Come on, let's get you ready for school. "
" Come on, let's get your nice clothes on, so that you can go to the party. "
" Bedtime ! " Let's get your clothes off, and your pyjamas on, ready for bed." _________________ Keep it simple ... Keep it interesting. |

Not if you add something extra .... " Let's take your clothes off, because it's time to go to sleep now."
Always try to make it sound worth doing. Works well with children. _________________ Keep it simple ... Keep it interesting. |
