[quote=Anonymous]8:30 for hours but like every person, every child has different sleep needs. We are still waking our y-year-old up for school at 7am. On weekends she can stay up till 9pm and will naturally wake up at 8/8:30 unless she needs to be woken earlier. Our 10-year-old though, he’s always been an earlier riser. It didn’t matter when we put him down for bed. He would always wake up at 5:30am/6:00 and if we pushed his bedtime back to 9:30 he’d wake up at 6:00 but me miserably cranky by 10:am. So he went down at 7:30pm and woke up at 6:00 and would manage fine. But by 4 he was old enough to know he was not to leave his room or wake us till 7:00. He had fresh water, a bathroom and tons of toys and books. He could self entertain. Your six-year-old may always be an early riser, but they shouldn’t be mindlessly roaming through the house at 6:30am. Set some boundaries, get an awake clock. [/quote]
