My 15 month old son has been, generally, a good sleeper up until now.
He used to be asleep by 7.30pm/8pm then awake at about 7am. I thought I had hit the jackpot.
Now he just will not go to sleep at night. I put him down at the normal time but he just cries and cries because he wants to play. So out of desperation I bring him downstairs to play and he eventually goes to sleep at around 10.30pm. But still awakes at 7am, then has an 1h30mins/2hr lunchtime nap.
I've tried winding him down - bath/book/pjs/quiet/low lighting etc, but he still wants to run around and throw things etc.
Tonight he did the same, and at one point I had to answer the door, so I put peppa pig on my iphone and gave it to him before leaving him in his cot.
Low and behold he went quiet, then half an hour later I checked and he was asleep. that was about 8pm.
please does anyone know why he is doing this, and is peppa pig on the iphone the right thing to do to get him to go to sleep?
