Daylight Savings, especially if their young children MAY wake up earlier.\u00a0 Don\u2019t panic, our children\u2019s body will adjust back to its regular sleep pattern within a week.\u00a0 Here are some tips to help with the time change this weekend:<\/p>\n
-Don\u2019t change the clocks before you go to bed. Change them in the morning, once everyone has started their day on Sunday (unless you have to be somewhere, then you may want to know what the \u201cnew\u201d time is!).<\/p>\n
-Push your children to stay up an extra \u00bd hour for naps and bedtime. For example, if they normally go to bed at 7pm, the \u201cnew\u201d time will be 6pm, so put them to bed at the \u201cnew\u201d time of 6:30pm. So you are pushing them to stay up an extra \u00bd hour because their body clock (\u201cold time\u201d) will be 7:30pm.<\/p>\n
-Do this for 3 days, then on day 4 move them to their normal bedtime.<\/p>\n
-For babies, you may not be able to keep them up for an extra \u00bd hour, so just start with an extra 10-15 minutes each nap time and at bedtime, until they reach the \u201cnew\u201d time.<\/p>\n
Remember, it can take up to 1 week for the body to adjust, but sometimes even as long as 4 weeks. Be patient and hang in there.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s to sleeping well!<\/p>\n
