5 Practical Tips for Bedtime Routine
- Create a Calm Environment: Dim the lights and reduce noise in your child’s room about an hour before bedtime. A quiet, cozy space helps signal that it’s time to wind down.
- Establish a Routine: Follow a consistent bedtime routine every night. This could include a bath, brushing teeth, and listening to a calming sleep story like “Sleepy Lost Pillow Story with Forest Friends.”
- Limit Screen Time: Turn off screens at least an hour before bedtime. The blue light from screens can interfere with the body’s natural sleep cycle.
- Comfortable Bedding: Ensure your child’s bed is comfortable with soft sheets, a favorite blanket, and a cozy pillow. A comfortable sleeping environment can make it easier for them to relax and fall asleep.
- Gentle Reassurance: Spend a few minutes talking or reading quietly with your child. Offer gentle reassurances and snuggles to help them feel safe and loved as they drift off to sleep.
