Parenting Tips on June 15 Fox 4 Morning News: Eye-Openers About Sleep-Overs


With summer break, your child might be missing her friends and might soon ask you for a sleepover.  Tune into Fox 4 as our parenting expert gives us ideas on how you can prepare yourself and your child for a sleepover ... and make sure you won’t be picking them up by midnight.
    
Is your child ready?
  • Has she had a successful sleep over before? (like grandparents' house)
  • Can she put herself to bed?
  • How high maintenance is his bedtime routine?
  • How able is your child to ask for what he needs?
What to keep in mind
  • Share ground rules in advance
  • Get to know the family, their rules and expectations
  • Give your child the skills they need to feel secure
