Has it changed for your children now the lighter nights are here? My 10 y.o has a shower around 8, 8.30 then reads until 9 p.m then it's lights out. My 7 y.o has a bath around 7.30 then has a story. His lights out time is around 8, 8.15. I ask as lots of other children seem to be up much later around where I live. Am I mean Mummy? Can any of you with 7 or 10 year olds tell me when yours go to bed - thanks.

11 Year old 9.00pm (he will be 11 next month)
7 year old 8.00.

No T.V. no reading, no nothing, I'm so mean

My 9 yo DS goes up at 7pm for a shower, then we do some autism-related stuff together for half an hour, then he reads till lights out at 8pm. Usually he goes straight to sleep but sometimes he lies awake a while. I know this seems early compared to some children of his age, but he has to be up at 7am for school so he needs the sleep.

Same for us - 9pm, with some quiet reading time from around 8:30pm (no TV).

10 yr old 8.30pm,

6yr old and 7yr old go to bed together at 7.30 but they are often whispering until 8ish.

I don't mind the whispering!!

6y DD - school nights 7:30-8pm for lights out; weekends and holiday often later
