[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this would help, but my adhd 4 year old is often very hyper when it's time to go to bed and was staying up for 2 hours bouncing around his room after book time. We recently started putting on audio books after I left the room and it is remarkably helpful. He is shooing me out of his room as soon as we're done reading (before, he used to ask me a zillion questions, and open the door like 30 times after I left) and stays in bed to listen. Falls asleep within 10 to 50 minutes, depending on how tired he is, but almost never leaves his room any more. It's been life changing. I have another friend with a adhd hyper 4 year old who is doing the same thing with success. May not be directly helpful to your son if his issues are primarily sensory seeking but worth a try. the books we've chosen are stories he is familiar with, with soothing british voices. [/quote]
