\n<\/strong>Establish regular bedtime and wake-up times to regulate their internal clock.
\nConsistent pre-bedtime routines can help signal the body that it’s time to wind down.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Ensure the bedroom is dark, quiet, and comfortably cool.
\nConsider using thick curtains to block out light and noise.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Avoid having electronic devices in the bedroom, as screen exposure can interfere with sleep.
\nEncourage at least an hour of screen-free activities before bedtime.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>A warm bath or reading together can help your child unwind.
\nReading before bed not only relaxes but also promotes brain development and creativity.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Aim for at least 60 minutes of daily exercise, including outdoor activities during the day.
\nExercise helps improve sleep quality and overall health.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Discourage overeating or eating too little close to bedtime to prevent discomfort and disrupted sleep.<\/p>\n\n
