Why The Early Bedtime Works For Us
The newborn had been going to bed around 10 PM like many newborns and when we came home due to the time change, he wanted to go to bed earlier so we transitioned him then. Some of them put their kids to bed relatively early like them and some of them have 9 or even 10 PM bedtimes. As with anything parenting related, every child is different and what works for one family might not work for another, but some imagine the Cookie household will continue with early bedtimes for as long as possible for a few reasons.
Key Takeaways:
- We are huge fans of the early bedtime in our home. It came about naturally for us after a trip to Scotland when Crumb was 3 months old.
- He had been going to bed around 10 PM like many newborns and when we came home due to the time change, he wanted to go to bed earlier so we transitioned him then.
- As with anything parenting related, every child is different and what works for one family might not work for another, but I imagine the Cookie household will continue with early bedtimes for as long as possible for a few reasons.
“The boys respond well to routine but it only works if we are as consistent as possible, so unless it’s a special family party or holiday, we are always home by 6:30 or so to get the boys ready for bed.”
