How much sleep do your kids get?

I have been getting mine in bed a little earlier this past month and have noticed that they are in better shape in the morning and in a better mood most of the day....we are shooting for 8+ hours...

Just curious what you all are experiencing

Both of mine have to be in bed by 9pm on school nights and 10pm on weekends. They average about 9 hours of sleep. My neice and nephew are wild night owls. They are the same age as my kids and I know on non-school nights, they get to bed around 2am.8o

Bedtime for the youngest three (5, 11, 13) is 8:00. They all fall asleep fairly quickly and are up by 6:30 at the latest. Dd2 (16) has a 9:00 bedtime, lights out by 9:30.

So, approx. 8-10 hours of sleep.

I remember my kids being in bed by 8:00 and not climbing out of bed (on weekends) until 11:30/12:00. :lol: As they got older... I swear they wouldn't get into bed until 1:30/2:00 and were up and ready to go by 6:00. Now they talk and wonder how on earth they did it. When I hear Dawn say she's in bed by 9:00/30 I have to laugh. She was always such a night owl.

I think Sarah get's about 9/10 hours of sleep a night, if not more. :)

both are pretty good about going to sleep when they are tired or no later than 10 for dd. ds keeps his own schedule.

Bedtime is 9:00 for my boys (ages 14 and 11) on school nights. On weekends, they stay up until 10:00.
