[quote=Anonymous]They need separate bedtimes and routines. The 3 yr old should be taken to bed at 7, down by 7:30. The 7 yr old does bath at 7:30 and in bed by 8pm. If the 3 yr old cries or screams, do Super Nanny style and once say "it's bedtime honey," and lead them back to bed, then 2nd time say "bedtime" and lead them back, and each time after that say nothing and lead them back to bed. If you have to do that 40 times do it, if you have to carry them do it. If you are consistent they will learn when it's bedtime they go to bed and stay there. But you're putting them to bed too early. If they like it, you can bathe them together, but the 7 yr old gets to stay up later.[/quote]
