Daylight saving support

5/4/2019

This weekend we put our clocks back as it is the end of daylight saving so here are a few ideas to help you and your children adjust:
  • keep to your regular routine of what always happens before you put your children to bed.
  • keep the children up a bit later than usual so they sleep that little bit longer on Sunday morning.
  • don't expect your children to stay in bed until the normal time in the morning, except that they will get up earlier, but encourage them to snuggle down for a bit longer, perhaps in your bed.
  • don't allow them on devices or in front of a screen before bed as technology will prevent their mind from winding down.
  • do something physical with them on Sunday to tire them out so they will be tired and wan to go to sleep early on Sunday (their usual time).
Just accept that they will wake slightly earlier​ and may be a bit grumpy/tired for a few days but be consistent and they will be fine.
