2. Shorten their nap time

When you regulate their nap time during the day, it helps them sleep very deep during the night.

For me, I do not allow my children go to bed in the later part of the evening because it will stop them from sleeping at night.

When I noticed them sleeping at anytime during the evening, I try to get them to shake off the sleep by taking them for a walk or get them to play 1 or 2 games.

3.  Try lavender and chamomile bath

The both ingredients are very useful in calming the nerves, easing tiredness and can help children fall asleep quickly.

Evidence shows that chamomile contains many terpenoids and flavonoids which contributes to it’s medicinal properties.

Chamomile can be useful in treating inflammation, sore muscles and ease up tiredness.

The kids have tummies that are still in developmental stages, so helping them by giving them food that are easily digestible can ease their discomfort and make them happy kids.

You can get them to drink milk or chamomile tea before bed.

Chamomile is widely regarded is a mild tranquilizer and sleep inducer so, so it’s a perfect tea to induce sleep and cure sleep troubles.

5.Turn off the lights

When I say turn off the light, I do not mean just tuck your kids in their beds, off the lights and then hit up your couch with a cup of tea.

What I meant is; lie down with them on their bed, turn off the light and pretend to sleep.

For me, I use this period to talk to my kids!… ask them about their day, what they plan to do the following day, about their friends and then around it off by telling them some stories,

and before you know it… they are all snoring already????????????
