I've been watching this crazy video of twin toddlers who put themselves to bed over and over again -- because it's pretty damn cute, for one thing. But also because I cannot believe my eyeballs! Two little boys who don't look a bit sleepy run off to their matching cribs, scale the things, plunk themselves in, and go right to sleep with their blankies and bottles. You have to see it to believe it, and even then you might be wondering to yourself if it's all just a stunt.
Right? That never happens! Well, I don't want to say "never" because I'm sure there are toddlers out there who put themselves to bed this enthusiastically. And even though I'm insanely envious of these parents, I'm also happy for them. I can't imagine how challenging it must be to get twins to sleep every night, so good on them. Just for the record, their mom doesn't know how this happened, either. Kids -- always a mystery!
Do your little ones put themselves to sleep like this or do they need more help?

My little girl goes to bed like this almost every night. She is almost 5 but she has always been very easy to get down at night.
My kids are the same way ;). Caden has always been a good sleeper. I tell "its bedtime" and there's little to no fight. I read him a few stories and that's that :)
My 7 year old was always like that. Around 18 months she was in a big girl bed and I'd just take her to bed, read a story and done. She wouldn't get out of her bed and play, wouldn't call me for anything. Just went right to sleep. My 3 year old on the other hand... different story. I still have to gate her in her room at night because she will get out, go into her sister's room, turn on the lights and play, all while her sister is sound asleep. She calls me for everything, uses every stall tactic in the book and usually doesn't actually fall asleep until around 9:30-10. So, I can understand this video and simultaneously envy the parents lol.
My brother used to do that. We'd have permission to stay up and watch TV and then we'd look around and he'd be missing. He'd be too tired and take himself to bed. I wish my kids did that. The older one (11) isn't so bad, but the little one (7) is scared of the dark, scared to be alone and scared he's missing something fun when he's asleep.
Cute, although someone needs to tell them those crib tents are recalled for killing kids. Yikes.
mine were never that happy after being told to go to bed. They do put themselves in bed though :)
