Managing our children’s sleep during the holidays is a balancing act. We want them to enjoy as much special time as possible with family and friends, but know if we bend the rules too much where sleep is concerned the result may take all the fun out of the celebration. The 4th of July can be especially tricky to navigate because of the fireworks. Talk about a sleep disruptor! Deciding whether small children should be included in that part of the festivities is a tough call. Do you take them to a public display and risk a major meltdown – or forgo the fun, put them to bed and pray that they sleep through the hubbub without being startled and scared out of their wits?
Whether you decide to head out with the crowds or stay home, the following tips in my article, How To Keep Fireworks From Ruining Your Child’s Sleep for July’s Fairfield County Mom’s Blog can help your kids stay happy and rested in spite of all the excitement.
