Why Do They Resist Sleep
Make sure the party's over.
It's hardly fair to expect your kid to go to bed when the whole rest of the household is still in roaring about in full swing.
Sleep time is quiet time, not only for your child, but for the whole house. The TV is off or turned way down, no one's clattering pots and pans in the kitchen, the neighbor isn't mowing the lawn.
As soon as your sleep-resistant child realizes that he's not missing out on something fun, he's more likely to let his sleepiness take over.
