The Perfect Bedtime Routine for Toddlers (That You Can Actually Keep)
•
1 min read
Why routines beat lectures
Toddlers feel safer when the evening has a shape. Predictability reduces negotiation.
A workable sequence
- Low lights, screens off early.
- Bath or wipe-down, pyjamas, teeth.
- One short story in the same spot.
- Cuddle, one clear goodnight line.
Where personalised stories fit
A calm story with their name holds attention without ramping up stimulation. Keep the same story for a week if they love it.
If it falls apart
Shorten the story, not the love. Tomorrow is another night.
