[quote=Anonymous]Maybe she’s exhausted and needs an earlier bedtime? I know that would be disappointing since you have such little time with her, but very soon her bedtime will get later. If it were me I would have a snack for her at pickup in the car. Get home and have “dinner” together right away of fruit and crackers and cheese (you and dh can have real dinner later). Then straight to bath, brush teeth, pajamas, one book (to reduce negotiations), then bed. I would avoid screens. You could even make a visual “map” of the process so she can point to the pictures of each Step. And then do it the same way every night (even on the weekends). Like a pp said it’s a stage and it won’t last forever, but in order to survive NOW it seems like your toddler could use more of something (structure, sleep, etc). [/quote]
