How to use the chart

Print the chart and stick it at your child's eye level near the bathroom or bedroom. Walk through the same five steps in the same order each night — toddlers feel calm and safe when bedtime is predictable. Keep the last part low and quiet: a gentle story, soft light, and a cuddle.

Why bedtime routines help
