Kids are like tiny tornadoes during the day, leaving a trail of toys and giggles in their wake. But when the sun begins to set, it's time to shift gears from playtime to dreamland. A consistent bedtime routine works like a superhero cape, guiding your little ones smoothly into a peaceful slumber.
A consistent bedtime routine does more than just guarantee an early night for the kiddos – it's the secret ingredient for cultivating healthy, happy, sleep habits. And let's face it – parents need a break too. A bedtime routine not only benefits the kids but gives you a pocket of time to catch your breath, binge-watch your favourite show, or indulge in a guilty pleasure snack.
A bedtime routine becomes a signal to your child's brain that it's time to wind down. These can help with that much needed wind down period:
