Parent Hack: The Secrets to Streamlining Your Toddler’s Bedtime – Modern Parents Messy Kids

When it comes to being a parent, the bedtime routine can often be a difficult and stressful time for the parents and putting their child to bed. However when it come to this particular aspect of bedtime routines there are some tips in order for you to streamline your child bedtime routine. This article offers you the insight into the secrets to streamlining your toddlers bedtime routine.

Key Takeaways:

• Why is bedtime so tough!? For starters, everyone involved is exhausted. Add in the fact that toddlers are volatile by nature and you have the ingredients for a perfect storm.
• A good bedtime is one where the child falls asleep easily and wakes up well-rested. (In my experience, almost every toddler should be in bed by 8pm. Most need an earlier bedtime, especially if they’re no longer napping).
• Your routine should be comprised of two components: non-negotiables (e.g., brushing teeth, one final trip to the potty) and extras (relaxing activities such as books and songs).

“The goal is to develop a consistent series of events that signal to your child that it’s time to wind down. Anything that doesn’t fit that description should be removed.Set your bedtime routine in stone, but also be aware that it will need to change as your child gets older.”
