I have found this healthy children website HealthyChildren.org - From the American Academy of Pediatrics to be very useful and a great resource....

This is the link to the bedtime routine page...

Bedtime Routines for School-Aged Children - HealthyChildren.org

WebMD has some good suggestions also...Guidelines For Your Child's Bedtime

Quote:
3. Consistency. As in all aspects of parenting, consistency and follow-through are key ingredients for success. Without them, you just can't expect your child to learn or change behavior.
WebMD also has printable "awards" for healthy sleep, exercise, etc.

Link to certificates is here...

Printable Rest and Relaxation Awards for Kids -- Reward Healthy Sleep Habits, Bedtime Routine, Naps, Less TV

good luck and hopefully, sweet dreams
Thanks for this!
