That’s a good idea. Typically we have dinner and do our bedtime routine, which all take several hours but are not particularly active. We can try to incorporate some fun game in between to get those legs tired. Thank you for the idea!

How to Set Boundaries for Your Child:
I have a four year-old whose bedtime is at 8pm. He keeps getting up out of bed and wandering the house until about 9pm. My husband and I trade off taking him back to bed with varying threats: taking away a prized stuffed animal, putting a gate on his door, taking away the iPad for x amount of time. While we have followed through on the stuffed animal kidnapping, the only thing we’ve accomplished is making ourselves feel pretty bad, and he still gets up and wanders around. It’s his fun new game. Any ideas on how to nip this?
