What is a good pre-nap wind down
« on: July 26, 2011, 19:54:35 pm »
What is a good wind down for naps? currently we tend to rock in front of the TV, then up to babys room, close the blinds, White noise on and put baby down. He does very nearly fall asleep in front of the TV. Any suggestions?

I would avoid the TV because it is super stimulating for little ones and even if it is soothing to him now at some point soon it is likely to be more exciting. You could do the rocking in his room while you sing a lullaby or listen to a lullaby CD instead?
