TheAnswer:
I leave ah boy to do his sch work. We hardly hv time to revise. If die die must revise with him, then might be difficult to sleep by curfew time.
Your boys are efficient :rahrah:Jennifer:
The curfew is 10pm.
Very seldom need to finish sch work till so late.
Reason for missing curfew is:
1. need to do late notice big biz
2. mosquito or other insects in the room, must kill before can sleep peacefully
3. noise from upstairs unit
I always tell my children: be grateful u can sleep early now. When u r older, there wont be another chance.
A fine line to juggle - work more or rest more.
I take the \"rest more\" option - better to be alert in the morning attending school, then not to be able to absorb whatever the teacher is teaching in class, then come home to do revision with weak understanding. Double wham for us at home. Worse case - a vicious cycle n more to catch up at home. -
Thank you for all your responses on sleeping time. DS usually sleeps at 11+ but he naps in the afternoon for 1.5 hours (our aim is usually 10 minutes but it is very difficult to wake him up when he naps
). -

Ah boy does not take afternoon naps daily. Once a blue moon, yes. And it is always initiated by him - just take off n I did not even know until I go check on him lying on the bed sleeping soundly
He will set his alarm clock to wake him up.

my major headache with him is when it comes to time mgt between his play/rest time and work/revise time. His is slewed towards play/rest time. Normal for children, I know.
But when compared age to age with elder boy, he is clearly off the mark. -

Hi ngl,
My kids also sleep at 11+...bcos they sleep in the afternoon.
Their most productive time is from 8-1030pm.
I did try to limit to 30 min nap but they can't wake up...and no alarm clock can wake them either...not even the loudest and most irritating buzz.
Mondays are the worst, which is expected.
Since last year, my son developed a love for sleep more than eating. -

Maybe you are stressing yourself. Maybe you should compare your PSLE Oral with your Prelim Oral. Is it better, same or worse? I think the score should be around there... -

PSLE oral was definitely a lot worse... :sad:Nightmares.:
