Asked by Panini {160}
4/20/2010 9:21:08 PM My kids are 3 and 22 months and we do 8 30 bedtime and they usually get up around 7 30 in the morning. I was wondering anyone else with kids close to my age when do they do bedtime? Someone told me I do bedtime to late for such small kids.. what do you think?

My daughter has been going to bed at 8:30 since she was 3 years old. Before that age we had a bit of a struggle due to moving and my new job (that requires some late nights work). She also wake up at 7:30 to go to school but if I let her she'll sleep til 8. The bed time hour for her and the method to reinforce it, was suggested to me by her day care provider and it worked. |

My children have also had 8 or 8:30 bed times since they were young. Kids need more sleep than adults, so these bed times are especially important for children that have to wake up early for school. - Alexis 4/21/2010 8:00:40 PM | Flag |

I think bedtime needs to be whatever works for your family and the amount of sleep your children need. My son is now 6 and his bedtime has always been around 8:30 or 9. I work from home at night and I need him to sleep in a bit or I don't get enough sleep myself! |

 | Rebecca Mendenhall Mine are 4 & 2 and I put them in bed at 8:00. They are up at 7:30 as well. I`ve also been told that they go to bed too late for their ages. But I have also noticed that the average amount of sleep children their age are supposed to get is 11 to 13 hours a night. I think if they aren`t acting groggy then you should be fine with the time you`re putting them to bed. Wednesday, November 03, 2010 | |
| Tamara Mocny I found with a lot of kids that If you put them to bed after 8:30, they are crabby. Wednesday, November 03, 2010 | |
