has anyone got any advice on how to get sleepy 5 year olds to sleep when it's still light outside?
they've got blackout blinds in their rooms which are quite effective but the children just know it's still light outside. dd is desperate to go to sleep but just can't - which i totally relate to as i can't sleep if it's light outside - and ds just uses it as an excuse to read till it's pitch black outside - and wakes late and grumpy the next morning. it seems such a shame to wish these gorgeous summer evenings were over just to get some sort of routine back at bedtime. help!
