Calming bedtime routine

Hoe doe je deze activiteit

Create a simple sequence you repeat each night before sleep. This might include a warm bath, gentle massage, quiet song, and dimmed lights. Keep the routine to 15 to 20 minutes total. Do the same steps in the same order each night. Your child will begin to recognize these cues and prepare for sleep.

Waarom het werkt

Consistent sleep routines establish healthy sleep patterns, which are crucial for emotional regulation and cognitive development. Quality sleep supports learning, memory consolidation, and mental health. Children with regular routines show better emotional wellbeing, which connects to later academic success (Visier-Alfonso et al., 2024).

Tips voor ouders

Start the routine when your child shows early sleep cues like yawning or eye rubbing. Consistency matters more than perfection. If you miss a step sometimes, that's fine. Even a shortened version helps signal bedtime. Keep your voice soft and movements slow.
