[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 75230, member: 1722"] I agree with SRL 100%. Duckie had a 7pm bedtime until last June. She would be up and down and up for the day around 5:15am if she stayed up much later. We are still adjusting to her 8pm bedtime. I had to move her up by 15 minutes increments over several weeks this summer so she could participate in activities after school. In addition to the sensory suggestions posted by SRL, I cannot stress adherence to a routine strongly enough. An early supper, bath, stories or quiet play, a massage. This would help comfort & calm Duckie so that her mind and body would be ready to sleep. I also found that running a fan helped to create white noise so that she wouldn't be focused on what we were doing in the rest of the house. [/QUOTE]
