Toddlers thrive on routine and predictability. Establishing a regular routine can provide your child with a sense of security and help them feel more in control. Here are some benefits of having a routine for your toddler:
- Helps with transitions. Toddlers can struggle with transitions, such as going from playtime to mealtime or naptime. Having a routine in place can help make these transitions smoother and less stressful.
- Encourages independence. A routine can help your child develop independence and self-confidence by allowing them to know what to expect and how to prepare for the next activity.
- Improves sleep. A consistent bedtime routine can help your child establish healthy sleep habits and improve the quality of their sleep.
Remember, every family’s routine will look different, but it’s important to establish one that works for your child and your family’s needs.
