They won&rsquo;t! They will scream and fight for a long time. This will be much cuter than waking them up</li><li>Cover up all the mirrors, then make some sort of really elaborate optical illusion out of them</li><li>Put up some of those weird 3D &ldquo;mirrors&rdquo; that only show a reflection of someone&rsquo;s face to make them look stupid</li><li>If they don&rsquo;t know how to read, teach them how. Then make them read out an amusing story in a voice too low for them to understand, so they are just hearing it in their head</li><li>Create some sort of secret code where you spell words out with your body parts (should be fun because it is funny) and don&rsquo;t even tell them how to decode it until long after they ask</li></ul></blockquote>"}
