[quote=Anonymous]Agreed. 8 is early for a kindergartner if it’s light out. Mine went through times all through elementary school where they needed more or less sleep. I never had a strict long term bedtime but would adjust. If your kid can’t fall asleep and isn’t tired in the morning, try staying up later. He can always go to bed earlier sometimes or consistently if it’s not working. Don’t call it a “big kid bedtime” to him or make a big deal about staying up later. It will make it harder later if he needs more rest. My oldest is a teen now and I have the hardest time with him, since he definitely needs more sleep than he wants to get and is cranky like the K days at the moment! [/quote]
