Shaking

Gillian loves to play with her baby dolls. She frequently brings me a baby and says "baby cryin." She will hand me the doll and ask me to help stop the baby from crying. I always play along and rock the baby and give baby kisses. The other day, Gillian gave Daddy a crying baby. Daddy took the baby and rocked her for a minute. Then he shook the baby saying "stop crying baby!" Gillian laughed at Daddy, which made Daddy continue to shake the baby. Finally she said "Not nice Daddy! No shakin baby!"

Now anytime baby is crying Daddy offers to help Gillian. Gillian says "No Daddy! No shakin baby!"
