[quote=Anonymous]Our almost-7-year-old and our 4.5-year-old have been sharing a room for the last two years. Ever since the younger one dropped her nap, they've shared a bedtime routine with lights out around 7:30 and wake up around 6:30. It appears that the older one needs a little less sleep now and is either taking a long time to fall asleep or waking up really early if she falls asleep quickly. Any tips on transitioning to letting her have less sleep without blowing up the program? If the younger one falls asleep, we sometimes let the older one read a book with a flashlight. Should we just get her a little light and tell her she can read once the younger one is asleep? I'm afraid if we say she can read in the living room while the younger one goes to sleep the little one will protest and never sleep.[/quote]
