I did it to shrink my babies.  When we were home alone together,
sometimes they began to loom 6 feet tall - all-powerful, dominant
forces around whom the rest of the universe spun helplessly.  A trip
to the local Commons... and they shrank into adorable little bundles a
fraction the size of those enormous 5 and 10 year olds - and my world
settled into a normal perspective again.
