I still can't belive school will be starting soon. My daughter gets to meet her Kindergarten teacher today and her first day is Friday!
Already I am trying to figure out what to do to get her to bed earlier (and to stay in her bed) at night. She can't seem to fall asleep in her own room (so she falls asleep in ours and I carry her up to her room). Usually in the middle of the night she comes to climb back into our bed. I usually take her back up to her room. Sometimes - like this morning at 5:15am - she comes down and asks me to go up to sleep in her room with her. I'm getting tired of this routine and want to change it!! I figure with school starting on Friday I should start a "new Kindergarten routine". I guess I can talk with her to see if she has any ideas about bedtime routine and ways (or incentives) to keep her in bed the entire night. (I "hear" it's good to get kids input in things - so they feel like their opinions matter!)
I would love to hear some suggestions or things you do that may help me decide what I should try!!!

I like your idea of asking her for incentives she can work towards that you both agree on. You could do a sticker chart that she work towards something special. Maybe a night of fun with mom of doing nails with pink nail polish and fun movie.
