Sleep

When teaching a new skill, consistency is your best friend when striving for success! To encourage a sleep routine, I would suggest solidifying a visual schedule night routine. In your night routine, it may be of benefit to introduce some form of physical activity, before starting to decompress for the evening. This may be a walk around the block, going to the park, following a dance along video on YouTube, etc! Please see below for all resources:
