6.5 year old. In bed at 7:30 lights out 7:45
5 year old. In bed at 7:00 lights out 7:15, although he's just started school so sometimes goes a bit earlier if he's particularly grumpy after school!

4 just started reception, have moved bedtime forward as she was being difficult to settle and over tired. So now goes up about 6 for a bath, in bed asleep just after 6.30

Imfinehowareyou · 18/10/2016 19:35

heather please explain! What happens in the 15 mins between bed and lights out? Do you leave them and just go up to turn off the lights? No stories? Say it is so. Mine are 3 and 6 and bedtimes are 6:30 and 7:30 respectively but after teeth/loo/stories we leave the 3 year old at 7pm and the 6 year old at 8pm. Loving the sound of yours!
