Club 3 or more Kids

MummyThreeStreams:

Long long ago (before the other kids came along) DS1 would go to bed at 9 or 930. But it would be really hard to settle him and he would be throwing tantrums from dinner time which was at 7pm. Then I realized that he was actually over-tired. So I pushed dinner to 530pm and bedtime to 730pm and he actually fell asleep much more easily! And DH and I had the whole evening to ourselves. since then, I've become a convert to early bedtime! The drawback is that when DH works past 8pm, he doesn't get to see them.


Of course, if they nap, they will sleep much later. But they don't nap anymore. They get about 10-11 hrs of sleep a day.

Yeah, I had no problems getting my eldest to sleep at 7.30pm or 8pm when she was the only child.

Now all 3 kids slp in same room, definitely tough to get them to slp immediately… hope over time they will all slp w/o talking, etc…

Helo everyone!


Been catching on all 33 pages of this thread.. reading reading reading.. LoLz..

Self intro, m a FTWM of 3 kids, DS 5+, DD1 4, DD2 2. All 3 kiddos used to be in Full Day CC, but right now, only DD2 is staying hm wif helper, with mum occassionally dropping by my hse.. while DD1 will be attending PCF starting in July, as she kept asking us to change her to PCF sch.. really wonder y..

So far, havent started on any assessment book yet.. but like wat most of you said.. i guess it is easier to buy a new book rather den recycle it..

Hb is driving a saloon car, as required by his job nature, so the car is basically paid for by company..

DS is currently attending maths supplementary classes & swimming lessons on saturday, while DD1 is attending maths class on every Monday.. Y maths? Coz they love attending the classes after juz 1 trial lesson.. so i tot since they have interest juz let them join.. no stress.. all for fun i guess..

All my kids items, from bb cot, prams, toys, clothes, right from DS, all are 2nd hand or hand me downs, the new clothes they gotten r usually during christmas n cny.. only recently we splurge a bit more for new toys, like beyblades for DS..

I've given instructions tat all has to be in bed by 830pm, but usually, DS will keep coming out of the room asking to pee, while DD1 will keep playing.. n DD2, though pat to slp by helper, at times will get distracted.. the 830am timing was implemented since late Jan this yr.. but till now, they still can't seem to slp so early.. n DS usually will slp only at 10pm plus.. any idea how n wat shld b done? If i were to b in there, i tink i'll most probably doze off b4 any of them..

Hi..

What Maths Supplementary are your kids going? Think as the kid grows older.. they won't sleep so early le..

Sorry, missed this out.. They r both attending IQ Maths class at Maths Hub..

I try to keep as much as I can especially those meaningful ones like art work done for Mother's day or Birthdays etc. But they are really taking up a lot of space.
