My battle is that my DC share a room and boy do they egg each other on! They are great friends and rarely want to go to sleep at bedtime. We have our bath/read story routine but they just want to play.

My son used to get back out of bed and say he needed the toilet, a cuddly toy, wanted some water, another cuddle etc etc....

Now, I go through a list of things to make sure he is entirely happy. It usually works until he thinks of a new one.

When he went through a phase of fretting before bed I bought him a worry doll to out under his pillow. He still uses it. Great things!

A lovely book and cuddles before all this also of course.
