Temporal variations in the mid-infrared emission from class 0-III protostars can provide information on the rate of mass transfer from the envelope to accretion disk. Variations in the mass transfer rate can have profound implications on the lifetime of a particular protostellar phase. Variability can also determine rotational coupling between protostar and disk. There have been few attempts to detect mid-infrared variability in young stellar objects. We propose monitoring of 16 young stellar objects in IC 1396 over a period of 14 days to measure if any variability is present. Variability on timescales of days, hours and minutes will be measured. These observations will be compared with archival observations of IC 1396 to look for fluctuations over longer time periods.
