How It's Possible to Raise a Genuinely Happy Kid

While you don't want to make a schedule that is so jammed-packed that your kid can't enjoy their childhood — and all of the messy times that come along with it — little ones do flourish with a routine. The most important aspect of a daily schedule is sticking to bedtime and teaching your child how to get a restful night's sleep. Learning positive sleep habits will benefit your child in the short term (they wont be a cranky and hateful mess the next day), but also in the long run as it helps them succeed in school and learn time management as a young adult.
