Synopsis[]
When Dil won't take his nap, the Rugrats try to get him to go to sleep. The job is so tiring for Chuckie that he falls asleep himself. He then has a dream that the Rugrats have become really really small. Can they get the giant, drooling Baby Dil to take a nap, when his every sneeze seems like a hurricane, and he wants to use Tommy and his friends as his new pacifiers? - Description from Klasky Csupo
Summary[]

Trivia/Goofs[]
- This episode was based on the movie The Incredible Shrinking Man, a sci-fi classic that included a scene where the shrunken man hid inside of a dollhouse from a hungry cat.
- When laying down to take his nap, Tommy's shirt turns white.
- At the beginning of the episode, Chuckie calls his toy Little Lyle. Before he falls asleep, he calls it Little Louie.
- Dil is shown to be able to roll over, from his stomach to his back, on his own, something infants may be able to do at the earliest at 4 months old.
- Dil is also shown able to commando crawl. This is typical not done by infants until they're at least 6-7 months old. However, due to this being during the duration of Chuckie's dream, it could have been part of Chuckie's imagination to allow Dil the ability to do this.
- The music at the beginning when the train passes sounds a lot like Disney’s Casey Junior from ‘Dumbo’ and ‘The Reluctant Dragon’.
