Bedtime incentives:
If you know you're going to be putting the kids to bed and you know they are likely to give you trouble, bring a "surprise" book and put it in a manilla envelope. Tell them that once they've brushed teeth, put on their p.j.'s and are in bed, they can open the envelope to find out what book you brought. You can use your own books from when you were a kid or pick one up from the library. My favorite book for this time of year is The Jolly Christmas Postman.
What is your favorite children's book?
What are your bedtime tips?
