3.Focus on Food Choices
What and when your child eats (or drinks) can affect their sleep schedule. A bedtime stomach that’s too full or too empty can make it hard to start snoozing. So can snacks and drinks packed with caffeine. Skip soda, tea, and chocolate in the afternoon and evening.
4.Stick to a Schedule
A nighttime routine can help ease your child toward sleep. A regular order of events at bedtime will help train their body and brain that sleep comes next. Write your plan down, with the help of your child. That’ll make sure you’re both on board (and help baby sitters know the drill when you’re away).
