Things That Help Little Alters Feel Less Dysphoric Without Garnering Too Much Attention
Other than plushies….
Light Up Sneakers
Overalls
Watching Cartoons
Eating Childish Foods (peanut butter and jelly, nuggets, crackers, etc)
Juice (Kool-Aid, Apple Juice, Juice Boxes, etc.)
Low Pigtails/Braids or Hair Clips
Baseball Caps or Bucket Hats
“Granny” Underwear Thats Super Cozy And Modest Yet Frilly
Backpacks (I use a Louis Vuitton backpack as my purse on the daily)
Disney Songs
Keyring with lots of fun jingley things hanging on it
Socks that are too big but you can wear around the house
Vintage Nightgowns (Thrift Stores are great for this!)
Clothes in Primary Colors
Little to No Makeup/Natural Looking Makeup
Doodles
Looking for Ladybugs or Crickets
Saying “Hello” to any little creature that crosses your path
Coloring Books and Crayons
Going to Museums (especially science and natural history ones)
Divided Plates
Drink Cold Drinks out of a Mug with both hands
Play with your pets
Play simplistic computer games (Big Fish always has free trials of cute games that will still challenge co-fronting alters while the little ones get pretty scenery or what have you.)
Jigsaw Puzzles (They have Lisa Frank ones at The Dollar Store)
Stickers
If your system is like ours, this may help. We like to treat our littles to co-front often while still being discreet af about it, these methods are tried and true to let your littles express themselves without drawing too much attention to the body/system as a whole. Hope this helps!
