So we try to put the kids to bed around the same time everyday. And most days the kids would go to sleep with little or no problem. However recently they have begun to exert their personal control over their own sleep patterns. The Main issue is the boys. Iris has her own room and normally likes to read in bed for thirty minutes before she sleeps. The boys on the other hand, well everyday is a sleepover.
If you have kids and have ever had a sleep over then you may have an idea of what I am talking about. The boys egg each other on in the badness level. The whole anything you can do I can do better.
The current trouble comes for the boys enjoyment of jumping and leaping off of things. Not only is this terrifying to us parents for concerns of injury but it is also troublesome due to the laughter and prolonged sleep time. My wife and I must have to go into the bedroom multiply times nightly to make sure the boys go to bed.
The worst thing is that no matter when they go to bed be it 7pm or 11pm they get up at the same time every morning.
