Bed times

Sammysu

What are your kids bed times and what are their ages?

DD is 6 yo and is in bed by 7:30.  DS is 4 yo and is in bed by 7:00 every night.  They are both early risers...awake between 6:15 and 6:45 so I want to make sure that they get enough sleep.  On weekends they both still nap about an hour so we stretch the bedtime out 'til about 8ish.

SD is nearly 9 now and her bedtime is 9-9:15 at our house.  DD is 19 months and her bedtime is 8-8:30. Works nicely for us and have happy kids.

My boys are 4 and 7 and they're both in bed by 7:30. The older one gets to read a few chapters while I read to the other one. They're both usually asleep by 8. We tried later but they were cranky and over tired.

My 7 y/o goes to bed at 8pm and gets up at 6am.

My 11 y/o goes back to her room sometime between 8 and 8:30, but reads for a while.  We encourage her to turn off her light by 9.  She gets up at 5:45 or 6.

He's 6 - and since school started, he's been really tired.  Books at 7:30, lights out at 8.   This is actually hard for me to get my act together to accomplish, but I've been really working on it.

His sister is almost 4 and it depends.  If she naps, she's up after him (part of what makes his bed time hard - he gets mad that she's still up).  If she doesn't, sometime between 7 and 8...

ETA:  They both get up around 7 (as long as her bedtime is decent - she's been known to sleep in and get taken to school dropoff and daycare in her pjs).

Both boys are asleep between 8:15-8:30. They wake up at 7. My DS in kinder has been very tired since school started so he is more that ready when bed time comes around!

My DS is 6 and his bedtime is 9pm. We tried 8pm and he fought it so on his 6th bday we upped it to 8:30 and he still fought. Now he rarely makes it to 9pm and goes right to bed.

I shoot for 8:30 for the 4 and 6 year olds. 

Ruby (21 months) goes to bed anywhere from 7:30 - 8:30.

830 for my 6 y/o.  It should probably be 8, but we get home at 6 and have trouble fitting dinner, bath, hw and some free time in there.

9-9:30 pm - 3.5 & 6.5

School starts at 9. 6.5 usually wakes up on his own around 7:30

I aim for lights out for both my kids by 7:30.  They are 4 and 2.5.  Both get up right around 7am.

The bus picks up the 4 year old at 7:59am for JK.
