Making toddlers sleep is not easy. They are always full of energy and do not want to sit still in one place for a moment. Here are some helpful tips for dads to make a toddler sleep.

Lack of sleep is as unhealthy for an adult as is for the small child. It may cause severe physical problems as well as mental stress. Mental fatigue can prove to be very fatal so it has to be checked from the very beginning. And the best way to check sleeping issues of your toddler is to follow a strict routine from the very beginning when your child is born.

Unless your toddler has a sound sleep she will not let you sleep and as a result you will feel more tired. So it is better to know the tactics how to make your kid go to sleep. Here are some tips for dads to make their toddlers go to a deep slumber.

Room Darkening Shades

For very small babies it is very important to keep the environment just as in the mother’s womb, so that the babies feel the similarity. It takes time for an infant to adapt to the changing environment. When you want your child to go to sleep take her to a room that has dark shades. It will enable her to fall asleep quickly. Paint the kid’s room in a little dark shade.

Read Stories

To make a nagging child fall asleep quickly, reading her favourite stories is one of the best ways. If your child is a little big to understand stories then you may read the stories together and in the middle you may ask your child about the characters in the story. You may ask your child what she would do if she comes under similar circumstances as the characters in the story. Doing this will boost up her interest and after some time you will find your kid has fallen asleep.

Lullaby

This is an age old custom to make babies go to sleep. Music has a soothing effect on everyone apart from kids. It brings a surprisingly amazing drowsiness in babies as well as in adults. So if you can sing a song while your child is in the bed it will work like magic. Music has the magic to soothe every fatigued mind and it can amazingly reduce stress.

Full Stomach

Make sure that your child does not sleep on empty stomach; otherwise she will wake up in the middle of the night and will wake you up also. So feed your baby adequately before sending her to bed. Make sure that the meal in the night is her last meal for the entire day. Though this is not possible as small kids have a habit to wake up in the middle of the night and they need to be fed at that time. Dads have a very tough time if they have to wake up in the middle of the night to feed the baby.

Do Not Wake Your Child if She Already Sleeping

Dads, if you want a peaceful sleep at night and find your child already fallen asleep without having her dinner do not make the nuisance of waking up your child to have her dinner. If her sleep is disturbed it will be very difficult for you to make her sleep again. So it is better to let her be like that only. Keep her meal ready in case she gets up in the middle of the night otherwise it is fine for both of you.

So for dads it is really a very daunting task to make your child fall asleep so that you can also enjoy the
