[quote=Anonymous]Hmm. Instead of 8pm, 10pm? Mine are 4 and almost 3 and we’re not close to that. We were pretty to the minute until about 2.5 for the oldest and maybe 22 months for the youngest? Our oldest is just waaaay less flexible. Now, it’s holistic. If we’re on a weeks vacation and the kids are sleeping well at night and taking their naps during the day (they both still nap), we’d put them to bed an hour late one night for a special activity. But we’d make sure they got good long naps the day before and after. Similarly, we would skip a nap for a special fun activity, but make sure they had a good nights sleep before and were in bed by bedtime that night. They handle that fine. But you’ve got to parent the kid you have. If your 7 year old has melt downs from staying up to late, then I wouldn’t do it. [/quote]
