3 Reasons Kids Resist Bedtime
Manage episode 445376990 series 3386176
Is bedtime becoming a nightly struggle? If your child seems to be battling sleep, it’s not because they’re being difficult. In this episode, we dive into the real reasons kids resist bedtime and how to make evenings smoother for everyone.
Key takeaways:
✔️ Separation Anxiety: Toddlers often feel anxious about being apart from you at bedtime, which leads to stalling tactics like asking for one more story. I share how empathy and clear boundaries can help your child feel secure and ready for sleep.
✔️ Bedtime Fears: Nighttime fears are common in toddlers and can make settling down hard. Learn how to acknowledge your child’s fears and provide comfort without getting stuck in an extended bedtime routine.
✔️ Timing Matters: Missing your child’s natural sleep window can lead to overtiredness, making it harder for them to fall asleep. Discover why an early bedtime works best and how to avoid the “second wind.”
Exciting news! If you’re ready for more big-hearted solutions to toddler struggles, pre-order my new book Toddlers Made Easy today! You’ll also get a free ebook with 200 parenting scripts with pre-orders. Find the link in the show notes!
