Here are some tips for getting to sleep.

These are some tips that helped me get to sleep at night.

  • Try to go to sleep at the same time each night.

  • Make sure you keep to the same routine – floss and brush your teeth, go to the bathroom, read a book and then turn off your light.

  • Listen to calming music or to a story but make sure the music or story isn’t going to keep you awake. You could also listen to the radio.

  • Read something that calms your brain down or something that makes you smile. It is important not to read something that makes you nervous or scared.

  • DO NOT read on a device. There is a lot of research that shows that devices before bed keep you awake.

  • Do not play video games before bed. ESPECIALLY NOT SCARY ONES!

  • Go to bed before your parents or family so you can hear them moving around. This will help you remember that there are people in the house.

  • Do not watch YouTube before you go to sleep. It is designed to show you things that might make you excited or scared.
