The best way to get your child to sleep through the night is to establish consistent bedtime routines and stick to them as much as possible. Establish a calming atmosphere for bedtime, such as dim lighting, soothing music, and comfortable clothing. Avoid stimulating activities like television, computer games, or phone use before bed. Have a relaxing bedtime routine that includes reading, singing, talking, and snuggling with your child. Make sure your child gets plenty of exercise during the day and avoid large meals at dinnertime. If necessary, consult your pediatrician for advice on how to help your child sleep better.
