Good Night!
A customizable visual schedule to make bedtime routines more predictable.
Print this page and invite children to color the cards. Cut them apart and paste them to a large sheet of paper to reflect children’s bedtime routine and help make it more predictable. Make (or leave out) as many as you need in order to personalize how it’s done: you might add “sing a song,” “look at the moon,” or any other steps. Hang the poster in your child’s room.
