How can I set effective routines for my children?

Setting routines for children involves consistency and structure. What specific areas do you want to focus on, like bedtime or homework?

I want to improve their bedtime routine. They often resist going to bed.

Try establishing a calming pre-bedtime routine, like reading a story or dimming the lights. Have you tried any specific activities?

We usually just watch TV before bed. Do you think that’s a problem?

Yes, screen time can make it harder for children to wind down. Consider replacing it with quieter activities to signal bedtime.

What time should I aim for them to go to bed?

It depends on their age, but generally, younger children need more sleep. For example, 7-9 PM is often ideal for preschoolers.
