My 3 1/2 yr old dd goes to bed about 8:00 if she takes a nap and between 7-7:30 w/out one and wakes between 6-6:30 (that's when dh wakes and I think it wakes her because he was gone for 2 weeks and she didn't get up until 6:45-7:00), and my 1 1/2 yr old dd goes about 7:00 or 6:30 if she is sick or misses her morning nap and takes an earlier afternoon nap or short afternoon nap and her sister usually wakes her because they share a room.  I also like the time to relax in the evening.

I'm in the early camp too. My almost 4-yr-old goes down around 7:30 (never naps), and my 1.5 yr-old goes down at the same time with a nap (2-3 hr naps), or before 7 if she missed her nap. I, too, love the evening down time. We also can just not eat with the kids, which I lament but hope will phase back in when they are older and staying up later.

All that said, I try to be flexible for fun stuff, esp. in the summer when it's light and warm. I think a day a week or so staying up late for social occasions doesn't harm the kids and keeps us involved in our social lives as well! Plus, sometimes we now get those fantastic late sleep-ins when we do cave and let the kids stay up late!

Hi all,

Gracie is 18 months old and is in bed between 6 and 6.30pm and sleeps until 7.45am the next day.  Having said that, she does resist her daytime nap and most days goes without one.  It is lovely to have the evening to ourselves.  Ben, our ds who is 18wks is also down most nights for 6.30 and sleeps till 7am with a df at 10pm - praise the good Lord!

My 1 yr & 2 yr old both go to bed between 6 & 6.30, they share a room. Both go to sleep after a few minutes of babbling/ crying  & 1 yr old wakes for a bfeed (still) 5am but back to sleep when both wake around 7am. Itīs about the same EVERY day, but it took a long time to get both to go to sleep off the breast at night. Wish 2 yr old would take nap again in the day though, but 1 yr old takes nap around 11.30-1.30 no probs every day now, phew!

My 28 months old will only go to bed at 18:30 if she's been up all day without a nap, and she will sleep as soon as her head literally hits the pillow

With a nap of about 1-1.5 hours in the afternoon, she'll be in bed by 8pm, but doesn't fall asleep immediately
