[quote=Anonymous]Sorry for you. 30 minute routine here for 1 almost 6 year old: bath (every other day - otherwise clean with wipes), tooth brush, song or book. I gently recommend: checking with pediatrician and/or each child's teacher for recs as they know your kids' personalities/temperaments. And, even though I only have one, is it possible to separate the two as the younger is messing up the older's routine (like can 1 parent take each if 2 parents; or 1 parent watch older while you take younger first.) I would recommend keeping to a 5 minute story (love those 5 minute berenstein bears, gabby's dollhouse, etc books.) It seems the top focus needs to be calming/addressing the 3 year's old needs - is he tired enough? does he feel loved? PS You're doing a great job in case you need to hear it.[/quote]
