What's your ten year old's bedtime routine like?

[AjasLipstick]

What time do they start getting ready for bed? Is it the same every night in order of what happens?

My DD is so blinking annoying....she always delays and thinks of things to put bed off!

Off all devices at 7. She’ll sit with us till about 7.30 then go to bed and read till 8 when lights out.

My 10 year old trains at a sport 5 days a week, so she doesn’t get home until 9.15pm. She has a quick dinner, then gets ready for bed. So I guess she’s in bed around 10pm. She’s up at 6.15am.

Shower around 8-830 then bed

No iPad in the week

Sometimes it’s later ds has always been good at going to sleep when he is tired he doesn’t fight sleeep so sometimes he is up later the other day he fell asleep on the sofa at 730

"I just try to imagine reading to DD but she hasn't liked me to read to her since she was 6 or 7"

That's great for you, however my 10 year old still likes a story. We don't do it every night as he has clubs etc and I'm knackered and want to sit down but while he likes a story, I'll read to him. All children are different.

My ds no longer wants me read him a story but he likes reading one of his books to me before bed. Sometimes instead of reading, we play a quick board game before he goes to sleep. It's nice to have a routine imo.

No screen time after 7.30 - upstairs for bath/wash and teethbrushing. In bed for 8 to read for half an hour, lights out 8.30

In winter in bed by 8.30pm, in summer in bed by 9pm, though 10 year old does wake up very early and insists he doesn't need as much sleep but I'd rather he woke up early than sleep late!!

If it's just me and DD, lights out and ready to sleep around 8:45-9 at the latest. If DH is dealing with bedtime the pair of them fart around giggling like idiots for another half an hour...

Dd is 9 and in yr 4. No matter what time she goes to bed she is up at 6am.
So it's up at 7pm. She draws for 15-20 minutes usually, reads a couple of chapters whilst having some fruit or a yoghurt and then brushes her teeth, has a wee and lights out at 7.45 and she can have the tele on until 8.30 when it gets switched off. She is usually always asleep by then.

Weekends we let her go to sleep later but she is usually falling asleep on the sofa by 8.30 and any later and she's miserable in the mornings.
She doesn't have to wake until 8 o'clock for school but she NEVER sleeps in.

Upstairs at 8pm, teeth and PJ's, in bed by 8.05pm.

He's allowed to read until 8.30pm and then lights out.

I'm not strict with the exact bedtime but lights out is 8.30 so he knows every minute late he is is a minute less to read so we don't usually have any issues.
