Encouraging good sleeping habits

Good sleeping habits are very important for your child’s development. Children need to learn good sleeping habits they do not come naturally. A good bedtime routine is essential for establishing good sleep patterns. Establish a sleep plan which all adults in the house agree to.

Tips to consider include:

· Children over 6 months old do not require food or drink during the night so stop night feeds after 6 months before they become a habit which will be hard to break.

· Re establish routines as soon as possible after a break due to illness, holidays etc.

· Give children calm down time preferably without electronics for an hour before bed.

· Try not to allow your child to fall asleep on the sofa as they need to learn to self soothe – fall asleep by themselves.

· Try to include a story or reading as part of a bedtime routine.

Choose a time that is convenient to start to establish a new bedtime routine.

· Be firm, consistent and confident.

You can do this!

Hearing Impaired Resource Base

During our Deaf Identity sessions this half term we have been talking about different sounds- loud sounds, quiet sounds, high sounds and low sounds. We have also been looking at the different parts of the ear (outer, middle and inner) and have created our own model ear drum to test with loud sounds. We used sounds of different pitches and frequencies to see if we could get our model ear drums to vibrate. Then we made a model cochlear using clay. Did you know that the cochlear is the same size as a pea?

We have also been learning all about the anatomy of the ear, including the parts of the ear and how these work. We used food to replicate the different parts and made our own ‘edible ear’. The children loved it!
