How it works
- 1~30s
Let's start by saying goodnight to screens together. In a warm voice, invite your child to power down any tablets, phones, or TVs. You might say, 'It's time to let our screens rest so our minds can get ready for sleep.'
Watch for: Watch how your child responds to turning off screens
- 2~30s
Now let's choose our bedtime story. Encourage your child to pick one or two books from their shelf. You might say, 'Let's find a cozy story that will help our minds drift to dreamland.'
Watch for: Notice how your child selects reading material
- 3~30s
Let's make our sleep space extra cozy. Together, adjust the lighting, fluff pillows, or arrange special bedtime items. You might say, 'What can we do to make this room feel just right for sleeping?'
Watch for: Watch how your child participates in preparing the sleep environment
