Nocturnal Babies have grown up - They don’t have to be Nocturnal Kids. We need to teach the children to sleep early.
So how do you make your child sleep early?
1. Plan ahead of time. Very often parents are the ones who delay their children. This is especially true because parents are tired out towards the end of the day
2. Prioritize Sleeping Early. This may mean not watching the 8pm news, reading the newspaper or any other relaxing activity until the children are in bed. Trust me, you’ll enjoy yourself more once they are in bed
3. Parents to sleep earlier too. Lights out for everyone is a good way to encourage your children to also sleep early
4. Keeping it consistent. Unless its a major holiday like thanksgiving or christmas, try to keep all exceptions to the minimum.
Above all, both parent needs to be united and work together on this.
