Do you have a toddler with a mind of their own? One mom is coming to your aid with a foolproof trick to get your little one to listen.

TikToker Sharon (@sharon.a.life) is a mother of six kids, and she’s sharing with you what she claims to be the greatest parenting hack of all time. It works like a charm!

“I call it the magic method. Why? Because I have convinced my toddler that she is magic,” said Sharon.

So whenever her daughter doesn’t want to do something, Sharon asks her daughter if she’s magic.

For example, if her daughter doesn’t want to put her pajamas on for bedtime, Sharon will close her eyes, count to five, and say a string of magical-sounding words.

When Sharon opens her eyes, her daughter will have “magically” put on her pajamas.

Once she discovers that her daughter successfully completed the task, she enthusiastically questions how her daughter has managed such a wondrous feat.

This encouragement will get your kid to continue doing it in the future. Sharon also applies the magic method to things like putting a seatbelt on or throwing away garbage in the correct spot.

“I would even change her diaper, closing my eyes. And she would let me do it. We are going on two years now, and I would say that it works like 95 percent of the time,” she said.

“And here’s the real kicker. It’s that my older kids think it’s so funny that I can do it with them, too,” she chuckled.

People were impressed by Sharon’s parenting hack, and many decided to implement it in their own lives.

“BRB trying this on my husband maybe he’ll clean the living room,” commented one TikTok user.

“I’m going to have a lot of magic 1st graders in September!” remarked another.

“I’ve been trying it this week, and it even works on my 10-year-old. Thank you!” shared a third.

So if you have a hard time getting your toddler to listen and follow instructions, try the magic method and see what results it will bring!
