Bedtime routine can be docked a full day?
Bedtime routine components will vary, of course, from family to family, but being consistent is important for the entire family. I will strive to achieve a balance between four important things:
Clean up and get ready for the next day getting ready for bed review the transitional period today with a parent
1. Clean and prepare for the next day:
I personally prefer the presence of children cleaning before dinner because it is easier to clean up after dinner and play, with “Family fifteen” or other cleaning game. Whenever cleaning, and I think that the order of those one personal and shared space is usually important to have (and I’m not just talking about children, people!)
You can get ready for the next day means determines the clothes for the next day, or at least just deciding what to wear. It may also include knowledge of your child’s school schedule. If school night, you may want to make sure kids have what they need for the next day (is it on the library? Do you need sports clothes? Does she have all her homework? Where is on the back anyway?)
2. In fact, preparing to sleep:
This is part of a bedtime routine that is probably what a lovely young from family to family. This includes entering into a minimum jammies, and brushing teeth, and put their dirty clothes in the hamper or dirty clothes basket / cage.
3. Review the day together:
For me, this is part of the bedtime routine that is tempting to blow some days in the interest of time. It is also the most important: spending time with you. In our family, this is part of the day where you want to go on the reward schemes for children (true confessions: I usually do not get this every night) and we are talking about how it went today. This generally helps with ties of brotherhood and reduces fighting brothers, because my kids talk to each other about problems or disputes after the passion is behind them. We do sometimes love games and write in our book today.
4. time with you
If you’re still awake at this point, it is a nice time for some private time with each child, even if it’s just a few minutes. This can be read or just cuddling together and talk. Anything that gives them your full attention even for a short time, and this is critical, especially with multiple children.
Give these ideas in an attempt to create a successful time sleep routine. Like anything else, and the implementation of the routine is always the key, but I bet you’ll start to look forward to this special time with your children.
Moreover, and more efficient your routine is, whenever you get time for yourself to recharge!
