Stopping child playing in the night

[Nkhutch]

My daughter has started to play from bedtime to 10:30/11ish and sometimes in the middle of the night. It's making her ratty and tired the next day. Any tips to stop her? She is 7.

@Believeitornot she gets all the attention she needs even though we believe she is doing this for attention. She has cuddles when she needs it we talk to her about her day, read with her play with her etc. Her dad is around he was just messing around with times of contact and being inconsistent with the days

If you think she’s doing it for attention then she isn’t getting the attention she needs...? We might have an opinion on what attention we think a child needs but actually it’s difficult to know as they cannot articulate it properly.
Maybe her dad messing about is unsettling her. How long has he been absent from her life?

@Believeitornot he isn't absent he sees her every week but for a period of time he was messing around when he was having her which upset her/ confused her. She actually slept last night I hid the baby's camera in her room, we stayed upstairs and was in her room as soon as she was out of bed. She was so well behaved this morning too so we might have found a solution
