My 5 yr old DS usually gets up around 8ish. He was in the afternoon PreK class so we all got used to sleeping late and taking our time in the morning.
Well, now he is going to the extended school year program, which starts at 8:45AM. I woke DS up at 7AM this morning bc the bus will be here around 8:20AM. Needed time for him to get up, have breakfast and get dressed. Especially since he moves sooo slow in the morning.
Well, of course he didn't sleep much bc I told him he'll be started summer classes soon and he usually doesn't sleep well the night before change. For example... the day before his bday party, when we are going on vacation, etc.
I am dealing with a tired and moody boy.
Any deal with this with change for an older LO? He is just 5 and totally gets used to his routine.
