Monday's Tip: Healthy Sleep Habits

Picture

  • Keep a consistent sleep schedule. Get up at the same time every day, even on weekends or during vacations.
  • Set a bedtime that is early enough for you to get at least 7 hours of sleep. Kids need more sleep! (https://healthychildren.org/English/news/Pages/AAP-Supports-Childhood-Sleep-Guidelines.aspx). 
  • Establish a relaxing bedtime routine.  
  • Make your bedroom quiet and relaxing. Keep the room at a comfortable, cool temperature. 
  • Limit exposure to bright light in the evenings.
  • Turn off electronic devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime. 
  • Don’t eat a large meal before bedtime. If you are hungry at night, eat a light, healthy snack. 
  • Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy diet. 
  • Avoid consuming caffeine in the late afternoon or evening. 
  • Reduce your fluid intake before bedtime.


One way families can wind down at bedtime is a technique called progressive muscle relaxation. Here is a video that families can try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoAdkJK5zmc.
