[quote=Anonymous]That does seem late; I aim to be in bed by 9:30 myself!!! We have stupid long bedtime too, because each kid has a specific routine and little rituals we keep and it’s long but predictable and fine. What keeps us relatively sane is to start this process at 6:30 or so. Both kids in bed and lights out by 8. We use the free meditation on the Calm app and it’s the final transition. Sometimes we use melatonin if someone is hitting a total wall and just can’t fall asleep, if we are traveling, dealing with illness, or just need a guaranteed easy night, but for the most part, we don’t really need it because we stick to our checklist. So my only complaint is that it’s butt-long; however they are 4 and 7 so I know we don’t have much time left and I’m trying to “savor” it. [/quote]
