I played the "I got your nose" game w/ my little brother when he was around 4. He really thought I had his nose, and begged that I give it back, so I put my thumb/"his nose" into my mouth, and pretended to eat and swallow it. He started crying and i had to get a mirror to show him his nose was still there.
