How it works
A bedtime routine is the same steps, in the same order, every night.
It helps a body feel calm and ready for sleep.
Sleep is when our bodies rest, and it is when we grow.
Worked examples
Same steps, same order
- Put on soft pajamas.
- Brush your teeth.
- Then a story, and lights out.
Calm, not loud
- At bedtime Kit does not jump on the bed or play a loud game.
- Loud games are for the day.
- At bedtime, we rest and be calm.
Sleep helps us grow
- All night long, Kit's body rests and grows a little.
- In the morning he stretches and feels happy.
- Sleep helps us grow and feel good.
