[quote=Anonymous]God so many of these posts are unhelpful. The OP is asking for logistical details! Here’s what we do, OP: 1) Bathtime is together. We don’t even think about that as part of the bedtime routine, honestly. But put them both in the tub. So much easier! 2) Shorten the bedtime routine. We do a single kid in 15 mins, easily. Potty, brush teeth, diaper, jammies, read two books, quick song in bed and I’m out of there. 3) Make sure the older kids room is reasonably baby-proofed. No tiny pieces on the ground, those should be out of the little one’s reach. 4) Once you’ve got that all down, your younger can play in the older’s room while you do his bedtime. It’s only 15 mins, it’s a safe space. It might help to have a few toys that ONLY get put out during that 15 min window. Then you can do bedtime with your younger after. [/quote]
