      :shock: is that too early? School starts at 7.20am right..that's 2 hours ahead..or is that the norm..My DD morning school next year

      KSP:
      What time do you ask your kids (pri level) to sleep if they need to wake up at 5.30am for school the next day?

          From the time they hop onto their bed till they wait up its about 10 hours. My DD goes to bed at 11pm and wakes up at 9.00am. However, the quality sleep time varies.

              5:30am is not early if child is taking transport like mine.

              Wake up earlier to have warm shower.. dress up.. have
              un-rushed breakfast.. and proceed to waiting location.
              Transport arrives 6:15am initially.. now got discount a
              bit.. hehee.. 6:30am. 😉

                Agree with lovekidsverymuch… between 8hrs

                to 10hrs of sleep is quite sufficient for a Pri
                Sch going child. Quite generous actually cos…
                there are some children who do not get even
                8hrs sleep, with reasons of different home
                routine or child is enrolled in a student care
                and parents still hafta check their work when
                they’re home. Some children also get afternoon
                naps while others may not practise the same. So,
                it varies from family to family and their school day
                or night routine.

                      But, do we have a choice?

                      Yes, if we are rich enough to buy a house next to the school and hire a maid (oops not our \"25hourmaid\") to do everything.

                      But for me, I'm not there yet.

                        KSP, mine too, starting morning session next year, only thing is that either DH or I will walk him to school,instead of taking school bus. Currently, our weekday (working day) starts off at 7.15-7.30am. DS1 can sleep till 8.00am. I will send him to student care centre at 8.20-8.30am(he will have breakfast there), sometimes even later :oops: and hence i gets late for work.... :rant: Starts work at 9am, leave home at ...... :!: and need to take 2 buses, near though..... :roll:

                        My next year plan SHALL BE wake him up at 6.30am :snooze: Prepare his breakfast while he washes up;he will have his breakfast and i do my wash up, can't send him to school in my worst state 😐 Have a quick breakfast before sending him to school at 7.05am. Then will have a brisk walk morning exercise in the neighbourhood park before heading home (by 7.30am) to wake DH & DS2 to work (drive to work and start work at 8.30am)& CCC, followed by myself.... 🙏 Hope my plan work!! Cos i really can be very lazy..... I am not a nite owl though, i can sleep as early as 9pm (when day i really cannot tahan...) average, i sleep before 11pm, wake up 7am.. :love: I am still growing \"child\" , so still need 8 hours sleep?? 😐
