Toddler Fixations

Emily loves to wear sunglasses. She's had a pair before, but we lost them. This has left her begging for our sunglasses. In an effort to appease her w/o letting her break our more expensive ones, we purchased a new pair for her. These are the most annoying things in my life now!!
We went on a bike ride and spent half the time stopping to "fix it" because she would mess with the glasses and for some reason can't figure out how hers work (she doesn't have this issue with ours, but that's because they are bigger than her face).
Then,last night she had total meltdown over the glasses. She HAD to wear them to bed, but of course, they kept falling off her face. I'm not sure how many times we had to retry sending her to bed, glasses on her face (she'd wail like we beat her if we put them anywhere but on her face). Well, she ended up getting hurt because she walked into her bedroom with no lights on and sunglasses on her face. BONK! Yep, that'll hurt when you run face-first into the side of your bed!
She does this with a couple other items and I just want to hide them until she gets past this phase.
