Beating a curfew is all in the preparation. So take a little time now to get things ready for the next time you find yourself on the wrong side of midnight... To complete this How-To you will need: Home Worried parent Curfew Outdoor hiding place Sleepwear Doggy treats Ability to think fast on your feet Step 1: Practice Practice! When no one is around, make dry runs from the front door to your room until you can do it as noiselessly as possible. Step 2: Memorize path to room Memorize everything on the path to your room, including creaky floorboards, squeaky doors, and noisy breakables. Tip: Stick as close to the wall as possible. Over time, most floorboards warp and squeak, but the boards near the wall stay strong. Step 3: Practice route blindfolded Now practice your route blindfolded. Once you can master that, you're ready. Tip: Don't bother with night vision or camouflage. This is curfew, not a secret war in Nicaragua. Step 4: Stash nightwear Stash a set of whatever you sleep in somewhere near your home -- AHEM -- so you can change into your nightwear before creeping inside. Step 5: Prepare excuse Prepare an excuse in the unfortunate event that you get caught. "I heard a noise outside and went to investigate" is always good. Tip: Skip the perfume or cologne on the night in question. The scent may be enough to awaken a sensitive sleeper. Step 6: Keep doggy treats on hand Keep a few doggy treats on hand so you can quickly quiet any barking dogs. Tip: If someone is driving you home, have them cut the engine and coast to a stop before your house. Turn off the radio at least a block away—two if you're playing hip-hop or heavy metal. Step 7: Be careful with handle Open the front door, step inside, and don't let go of the handle until you've gently closed the door all the way. Tip: Take only the keys you'll need so the rest don't jingle and give you away. Step 8: Get in bed & stay there Get in bed immediately and stay there. Too much movement in your room is a dead giveaway. Thanks for watching How To Sneak Into Your House After Curfew!
