If you’re a parent of a young child who seems to have a PhD in delaying bedtime, you’ll relate to this hilarious video from comedian Tyler Green. It’s packed with all those quirky, unexpected questions that pop up just when you think your little one is finally settling down. “What’s the moon made of?” “Do we really need to sleep?” “I just wanted to tell you I saw a butterfly!” These are just a few of the gems you might hear while trying to usher your child off to dreamland.
Capturing the Chaos
In his viral “Bedtime Excuses” video, Green perfectly captures the chaotic yet relatable struggle of every parent. He portrays a tired mom questioning her toddler self, “Why are you out of bed?” The classic response? “I can’t sleep!” And even though it’s way past their bedtime, that doesn’t stop the endless stream of questions and observations like “I saw a shadow, but now I’m not scared” or “What if I was really a superhero?”
One particularly accurate line is when a child claims, “I had to come down because my sock was itchy.” If your kid is even slightly uncomfortable—whether it’s a wedgie or a runny nose—you can bet they’ll let you know, and expect you to solve it. And it doesn’t end there; these “problems” will be relayed repeatedly until they finally drift off.
The Tween Years
This video is just as entertaining as comedian Jamie Lee’s take on the life of a middle schooler. While navigating the toddler phase can be exhausting, the tween years can be just as challenging, even if they do sleep like angels.
It’s comforting to know that countless parents resonate with these funny moments, sharing a collective sigh of relief and laughter over the antics of their adorable yet persistent kiddos. So, the next time you’re tucking your little one in for the umpteenth time or dealing with a moody pre-teen, remember these comedic snippets and smile—perhaps while enjoying a glass of wine, of course!
