Kids and bedtime is a very popular topic. Even if you are dedicated to getting your kids to bed on time and a serious stickler for schedule, hiccups happen. Kids get up at night, they refuse to sleep and any other number of things keeps parents guessing at bedtime. Will the kids sleep or will we be up dealing with them? We all know that kids need their sleep to excel in school, to feel great and to have the energy to play like kids should. Sleep Number is dedicated to making sure kids get quality sleep too. So they created the first bed that grows with your children as they do! The SleepIQ™ Kid’s bed is here and it looks amazing!
Before I get into why I am seriously considering heading to my local Sleep Number store to experience the SleepIQ™ Kid’s bed for myself, I want to tell you my one tip for a smooth bedtime routine! Ready?
An early bed time!
Yep, I put my kids in their beds at 7:30 every night. I would say without fail but we all know better than that! Even during the summer, I try to adhere to this bedtime. For years I struggled with bedtime. My oldest was the worse culprit. She was born with her eyes wide open and getting her to close them for a good sleep is virtually impossible. But one night she went to her room and fell asleep right around 7:30. She slept until 7 the next morning. So the next night, I put them to bed with a story and same thing. Taking her own bodies clues, I made that bedtime.
Bedtime has become so much easier since the change. On nights that I miss that 7:30 – 8 window, I will hear her in her room until past 10 playing. But if I can make it, she sleeps and wakes happy. If you are having issues with bedtime, try earlier! It may work for your kids too!
Another thing that might work is the SleepIQ™ Kid’s bed from Sleep Number! The first adjustable bed for kids, it grows with them as they age making it the only mattress you will need for them. They can even take it to college!
