~ the perfect solution for sleep deprived, cranky and over-tired parents!
As a mom to a toddler I know just how frustrating bedtime can be.
It feels like the night will NEVER end.
Dinner takes forever.
Brushing teeth is peppered with protests.
Wearing pjs leads to multiple meltdowns.
And when you try to close the lights after storytime? Major meltdown.
Then our kids get into bed. Finally.
But now they won’t STAY in bed.
“Can I have water? I’m thirsty”
“There are monsters under the bed!!”
“Can i have one last story?”
Now put this on repeat.
Every night is filled with the same drama.
The exact same meltdowns.
Every. Single. Night.
So let’s figure this out? Let’s figure out why kids do this.
But more importantly, what can we do about it?
Toddlers protest/throw tantrums as bedtime approaches for a variety of reasons.
But the MOST common reason which many parents don’t realize is that they have a discipline issue at hand.
And that’s where bedtime routine charts come in.
They provide your toddler with a visual of everthing they have to do to get ready for bed.
Now if you dont know already, toddlers LOVE visuals.
At a glance they know exacly what to do.
But more importanty, they help toddlers feel motivated to complete their pre bedtime tasks with enthusiasm rather than resistance.
Frustrated by the nightly routine of tantrums, protests, meltdowns and stalling, I decided to create a bedtime routine chart.
But not just any bedtime routine chart.
A bedtime routine chart that actually works for my toddler. Something that actually helps solve my problem.
After experimenting with many different templates of charts (and trying them out with my own toddler) I quickly learnt what works and what doesn’t.
- While sticker charts are cute, I found it time consuming (and rather annoying!) to have to help my toddler stick 6 stickers every night on her chart.
- The charts with checkmarks work wonderfully for older kids (that’s what I use for my 7 year old!) But I found out that making tick marks is NOT easy for a toddler.
My 3 year old would try making them and they’d turn out all squibly. And she’d have a major tantrums about it.
Epic Fail.
The chart that worked the best for my toddler was the one with pictures. Where she could actually move those pictures to the done section once she’d completed a task.
I kid you not when I say that bedtime stalling became a thing of the past once we started using this at home.
My toddler would be so excited to move the pictures to the done section she was actually motivated to complete her pre-bedtime tasks and hop right into bed.
Without me nagging, yelling or even reminding.
IT HAS BEEN SANITY SAVING FOR US!
Has truly helped motivate my son for bedtime. No tantrums since starting. He can’t wait to complete his “checklist” for the night!

FAQs:
Will this bedtime routine chart solve all the bedtime issues I’m having witth my toddler?
No. This chart will not make ALL your bedtime issues with your child disappear. If your toddler is overtired, overstimulated, not tired enough or doesn’t have a consistent bedtime routine then you need to address those issues separately.
This chart is meant to be an aid to motivating little kids to get their pre-bedtime tasks done. In a way that requires minimal effort from your side.
And in a way that your child is actually excited to complete their pre bedtime tasks. It’s particularly effective in handling bedtime stalling which is a problem that many poarents and caregivers face.
Will the prints look exactly like they do in the pictures shown?
The images will look exactly as they do in the pictures, however colours may vary slightly depending on the colour settings of your computer monitor or the printer.
