Do you stick to the same bedtime routines during school hols ??

[NuttyMuffins]

In term time mine go to bed 8pm and are up at 7am.

In the hols I generally let them stay up util 9 and they will then normally lie in until 8 or 9.

Only problem is, today they have driven me nuts, but non of them are tired as they weren't up until 9, so if I put them to bed now, they won't sleep.

It's best to stick to the same but we don't always manage it.

I certainly want them upstairs and out of the way at a reasonable time.

[NuttyMuffins]

Ahhh at least I am not the only one then.

Am going to do them some hot choc in a mo and then they can go up and reaxd in bed.

all routine goes AWOL during the holidays - I forgot to give my children lunch today and gave them some pineapple at 3pm before I realised!

(they did have a late breakfast)

No

I did suggest a story but they argued about which to have so i said forget it.

Mind you they are quiet again now for five minutes. Dd1 is writing, Dd2 is reading and Ds is on the sofa talking to himself.

I try to do same ( just getting milk ready for 2 year old I should really be upstairs reading to them!!)
my 5 year old has been staying up a bit later than usual - maybe 30 min extra

any chance of reading books in bed, or listening to some storytapes to wind them down?
