Fool Proof Bedtime Routine

Best Bedtime Routine

It's the end of long day and your glass of Malbec is calling you but first get thorough the ever dreaded bedtime routine. Below you will find a step by step guide to get your kids in bed and then stay there!

1. Start bedtime routine 30-45 minutes before the time you want your kid(s) to be asleep by.

2. Establish a routine you can stick with every single night and a hybrid version for kid(s) who are still napping.

3. Always, begin by telling your child when you are transitioning to another activity.

4. It is optimal to begin your bedtime routine with a warm relaxing bath.

5.  Next, dress your children in clothing they won't over heat or be cold in.

6. Lastly, have your children pick 2-3 stories they will like to read before bed.  Do not worry if they are roaming around the room while you read.

7. Next, sing a bedtime song.

8. Lastly, put on a sound machine and night light. Tell your kids you will see them in the morning.

Then proceed to pouring your favorite glass of wine.  Enjoy the silence for the next 10-12 hours.
