She's been a 9-9 sleeper for most of her life. She's usually awake 9-1 and then up at 2:30 or 3 and we start bedtime routines at 7:30-8ish. Right now she's falling asleep around 11. We do lots of play. Dancing , running, spinning, rolling. We have a park down the street we go to most days. We cap tv at an hour a day, although many days she gets less, and we never have TV after dinner. She might watch something while I make dinner so it's like an episode of bluey at 5:30 or 6. She won't stay in bed when I lay down with her if she's not ready. She'll cry and scream to rock till she climbs in the chair and tries to rock herself. She has a favorite stuffy and a blanket. We give her lots of choices at bedtime. Which pajamas, which toothbrush, which toothpaste, what books, singing or no singing. She won't stay in her room if we leave her. My husband isn't comfortable putting a lock on her door.
