Please share your 18-24month old’s(approx) bedtime routine

Just that really, I know all children are different but just looking for some ideas!

We don’t have a strict routine - second child so much more relaxed with things this time round but usually we do bath about ten to six, play with her brother for ten mins then usually weetabix or porridge about quarter past six, pyjamas on, milk at quarter to seven and in bed by seven. I’ve had enough by then so nice early night 😂

Bath at 6, out at 6:20. Moisturiser, jammies, teeth. Into the bedroom to read stories and play til just before 7. Chooses a couple of soft toys to take into his cot, then into his sleeping bag and into his cot. White noise on, groclock on and light off.

My son is a little older now but between 18-24 months the routine looked like this.

At 7pm we headed upstairs and sat him on the potty whilst we read a book. We then got him changed into his night nappy and jammies then brushed his teeth. After teeth it was cuddles and a drink of water before putting the white noise on and getting into his sleeping bag.

My daughters are 2 and neatly 4 and we have had the same routine since the youngest was about 1.
Bath: 6.00
Pjs: 6.20
Story: 6.25
Lights out: 7
Up until a year ago they would sleep in their own rooms, but they share now. I used to leave them both to fall asleep by themselves but now lie with them both until they fall asleep. I actually love lying with them whilst they fall asleep, such a lovely peaceful time of the day.
