    There was another thread about this very recently and I took advice from it as my DS is the same. I sing 'this is the way we wash your face' to him and have my face quite close to his so I have his attention and he stops thrashing around and listens long enough for me to clean him up!

    Thanks so much girls. Some great suggestions here. Today at lunch I just let her play with the washer for a while and then made a very silly game out of getting the rest off her face and got nothing more than a scowl (that quickly turned into a grin).

    I'll try giving her a dish of water sometimes too, though she LOVES to splash so this one's gonna be messy!!
