We as parents do a lot of things to make sure that our
little one sleeps comfortably. Sometimes it becomes difficult to make our
little one sleep and we do many things such as singing a song, telling stories
or talk with them to make them sleep.
The fun bedtime rituals which I share with my little one to
make her sleep are:
Telling Stories: With time I have come to know that my
little one like stories. I know this because when I tell her a story she
sleeps in a short while. I tell her stories from a story book or sometimes I
tell her stories of me. She listens to the stories very carefully and asks questions
which make me happy. Sometimes she asks questions which even I can’t answer and
I give her the answer next day.
Playing Music: Sometimes when I select a story from her
storybook and start telling her she says ‘Dad, I am not in a mood to listen to
story today, instead of it I want to listen to music’. Then instead of stories I put on some
nice music for her or some rhymes on youtube which she likes very much. She is
around 3 years old so I make her watch nursery rhymes of numbers and alphabets so
that while watching these rhymes she gains some knowledge also.
Stuff Toys: My daughter likes stuff toys, especially the
soft toys of animals. She sleeps in her cot alone so I have bought a lot a
stuff toys for her so that she may not feel alone while she is sleeping. She
sometimes sleeps while holding her stuff toy. When I wake up at night to see
her she is always holding her stuff toy tightly. Stuff toys in her cot make her
sleep comfortably.
Playing Ludo: Sometimes before going to sleep she says
‘Dad, I want to play Ludo’ she doesn’t understand much about the game but the
only thing she likes is rolling the dice. In, this situation instead of saying
no to her I play with her because I have observed that when you keep on telling
your little one to sleep he/she will never sleep because it will just increase
the anxiety. So, I sometimes play Ludo with my daughter to make her sleep.
Apart, from these it’s very necessary to make sure that your
little one is wearing a diaper which makes him/her dry form outside as well as
inside. While other diapers only focus on keeping dry on the outside, the new
Pampers Baby Dry Pants promises dryness on the inside too. This means that your
baby’s sleep will not get disturbed by a wet diaper and your little one will
have a sound sleep.
