	Bedtime rituals - Partnership for Learning
		Bedtime is always a struggle when you have children.
		Once something is established as the bedtime ritual in your child’s mind (and yours), then it becomes “the law.” Try to pick a ritual that you can stand to do night after night.
		Bedtime rituals are something that can help you and your family bond into a loving and communicative unit.

	NNCC Good Times at Bedtime
		Bedtime means children have to give up the toys, people, pets, games, or stories they are enjoying at the time.
		While having a certain amount of sleep may be less important than once thought, having a certain bedtime, complete with rituals and regularity, is important for growing children and their parents.
		Regular bedtimes encourage children to develop predictable habits of sleeping at night, and enable parents to make plans for their own lives away from their children.

		Tell him, "If you stay in your bed, I'll stay in the room, but you must stay in your bed and be quite." If he is not quiet, walk out of the room for 10-15 seconds and then come back in.

		Practically speaking, unless your children sleep in the same room, it's hard to give them all attention at bedtime when they all go to bed at the same time.

		When a grandmother announces, "Bedtime!", her grandson says, "No." However, as the evening draws on (marked by the changing minute hand on the clock face), the boy reports, one by one, that his three stuffed companions may be growing sleepy.
		The grandma tucks each one into the boy's bed with a goodnight kiss, then begins to read them a bedtime story "with no one sitting on her lap." The little boy climbs aboard to snuggle and hear the story's conclusion, and soon willingly joins his furry friends in bed.
