I taught DS that he has to stay in his room until the first number on his clock is 7. Most days it works!



Same here. It has been a God Send on those pesky time changes too. Chat Icon

We have that bunny clock & in the beginning she yelled, "mommy the bunny says I can't get up yet...but can I see you?"

It did work for a little bit; but then she was back to her 630 waking time.

my mom taught my brother with a light on a timer. When the light went on, he could get outta bed.

it worked with a rewards system. he got a cookie for dessert or chocolate milk with breakfast every day he did it.

I saw this on onestepahead.com

My friends swear by this clock:

Color change clock




This is what we use.

It gets him up on weekdays and makes him sleep on weekends.

LOVE.

OMG - I need to work on this Chat Icon

Today Jack woke up at 5:14 and I almost started to cry because I thought it was for the day, but luckily I talked him into getting back into bed to play with his toys. He ended up sleeping till 7:15 when Tyler busted open his door Chat Icon Chat Icon
