My mom had a 'trick' to getting us to brush our teeth. She's count to 10 while scrubbing each quadrant of our mouths, but she'd make 'nine' stretch out to 'niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine' (scrubbing all the way).
When I started to do this, my kids caught on. So, I started singing one of the classic Sesame Street songs. It doesn't go for the whole 2 minutes you are supposed to brush, but 1) I don't sing it this fast and 2)It's longer than they'd brush on their own.
