Hi Friends!
Here are some things you can do to help get a good night's sleep.
- Make sure your bedroom is cool, dark, and quiet. Ask grown-ups to help.
- Don't drink soda with caffeine especially in the afternoon and night.
- Avoid big meals before bedtime. Drink a warm glass of milk or have a light healthy snack like fruit instead.
- Have a bedtime routine. Do the same relaxing things before bed each night, like take a warm bath, reading with your grown-ups, and listening to the Sleep Fairy CD. The routine tells your body it's time to settle down and get ready to sleep.
- Try to go to bed at the same time every night. Your body gets used to a schedule and will be ready to sleep.
- Exercise during the day. Running and Playing at least 3 hours before bed helps your body get ready to sleep.
