⭐Bath time as part of the bedtime routine?⭐

🐳 I'm going to say something maybe controversial regarding sleep training and bath time. I've read a lot of sleep trainers say to have a calm bath with minimal toys/excitement as part of the bedtime routine...

🐳Now, anyone who has or cares for a child 6 months old or older will know that just isn't happening!! They love bath time, they kick their legs, squeal and giggle. There is nothing calming about it!

🐳 So, for those of you who have children that love their bath time, don't stop them loving it. Make bath time slightly earlier so they can have all the fun. Then the moment (and I mean the very moment) they get out, completely change your tone and energy. Bring them into their room with their light on low and begin your routine from here.

⭐️ The transition from warmth to cold (when getting out of the bath) helps kick in the melatonin (sleepy hormone).

*For tiny babies baths can be very relaxing and calming*

⭐️🐳 Happy bath time 😊🌊
