Control the lights – dim the lights 30 minutes before bedtime

Use black out shades and close them early

Stick with your regular bedtime routine

Start early – try to ensure your child is well rested in the days prior to Daylight Savings

Anticipate behavior change – none of us do well when we do not get enough sleep. Be patient and sympathetic. Remember, within a week everything should be back to normal.
