The dreaded time change is coming up! (I personally love the fall back but I know it can be hard on your little ones) Here is how to adjust them. FALL BACK Take Your Time Leave your clocks alone on the first morning of the time change. Wake up at your usual time and start the day. Enjoy that extra hour before the day really begins. Don’t forget to change those clocks before the hustle and bustle of the day begins. It’s Time to Close the Nap Gap... Instead of immediately making the switch to new naptimes, split the difference. Adjust the morning and afternoon naps by 30 minutes to begin with and add another 30 minutes by the third day. This will be a bit of a stretch for your child’s routine, but not so much that it will cause major disruption to his schedule. Take Time at Bedtime If bedtime is usually 7:00 PM, put your child to bed at 6:30 PM for the first three days following the time change. Remember that 6:30 feels like 7:30 to your child. Go back to a 7:00 PM bedtime on the fourth day. It will take about a week for your child’s body to get used to this adjustment. Give Your Baby Time Because 6:00 AM is the new 7:00 AM, your baby is going to be waking up too early. Instead of rushing in at 6:00 AM, encourage her to stay in bed longer by waiting ten minutes to get her on the first morning of the new schedule. Continue by adding ten minutes each day until the end of the week. At this point your baby’s body will adjust to the changes in naptimes and bedtime and she should wake at the desired hour. A Good Time to Teach Time Consider taking this opportunity to teach pre-school children to read a clock. If you have children over the age of two, this is an ideal time to boost independence by adding a digital clock to their sleep environment. Spend time teaching them the numbers 6 and 7. Draw, colour, trace, cut, or make up a little story about the numbers. Be creative to get your children interested in the numbers. Cover the minutes on the clock with black electrical tape and reinforce the number 7 (this is the magical number we must see before we can wake up). Adjust the clock forward by 30 minutes so that at 6:30 AM it reads 7:00AM. This means your pre-schoolers will be waking a little earlier at first but be back on track by the end of the week.
