Bedtime routine

Gareth Chadwick, Head of Marketing at My 1st Years comments: “For children of all ages, bedtime stories are often a prominent part of their bedtime routine.

“Not only does the association of bedtime reading help to trigger relaxation that helps with sleep, but bedtime stories are also shown to aid language development, imagination, create conversation and strengthen the bond between parent and child.

Inspiration

“Children will often have a favourite story that they want to hear again and again, and likewise, parents will often have a trusty book that they enjoy reading to their child.

“We hope that this research may inspire parents to pick up a new book and see if they can find a different story to make a part of the bedtime routine.”
