Early waking for 2 years...

My 4 and 2 year old boys wake early every morning, 5am onwards, usually before 5.30.
They go to sleep easily enough, with me sitting on a chair in the room, sleep all night, but are awake and ready for the day at 5.
I know it isn't problem of the century, after years waiting for them to sleep all night it seems small fry, but before I consider number 3 I would really like them to sleep later... To be honest I am just sick of it and want some bloody sleep, I work late so I get 6 hours max.
Failing that I would like tips on how to get them to be self sufficient in the morning, I know that's a big one, but they wake up like it's midday- ready to get dressed/ fighting/ throwing toys around and it really pushes my buttons. If they would play in their rooms that would be a whole new world....

Anyone? Anyone?! It was 4.30am today and I had to take them out in the car as they were making so much noise.
