2018 Update: You may want to check out some of our more recent stories about bedtime, including our recent post on how to get your kids to sleep.
My younger son (H, 25 months) is the night owl in the family — on nights when my husband and I give in to sleep on the earlier side, like 10:00, H is often the last one left standing. He doesn’t scream, or fight — we say goodnight, leave him in his crib, and then hear him laughing, playing, singing. We’ve tried stuffies, blankets, pillows, and light-up crib toys like Glowbear — but they all go flying across the room in a semi-violent manner, which H thinks is hilarious. (Another possible component here: We also call him Sir Poops a Lot because he frequently will poop at least once after being put down to sleep.) ANYHOO: We recently bought this nightlight for him, hoping he would lie down long enough to fall asleep, and now I kind of want one for myself, because the lights really are lovely and soothing. I also like that it automatically shuts off after one hour and can connect with your iPhone via Bluetooth to play your own music. It’s $21.95 at Amazon. Aurora Borealis Nightlight by Deneve
