How to put your baby to bed awake:

AWAKE WINDOWS-
Check your Bub's awake windows to ensure you're putting them down at an optimal time for them - finding the sweet spot between the sleep drive being on point without tipping over the too-tired boat.

WIND DOWN RITUAL-
Ensure you give Bub enough wind down to help separate awake & play time with calm, sleepy time. Simple things such as singing a song , reading a book or cuddling in their sleep space before they go down.

GIVE THEM A CHANCE-
"it didn't work yesterday... so much easier to not even bother today". But don't assume that means they can't go down into bed awake today...trust me, the only way they will learn is if you give them a chance and some space to try.

AND LASTLY -
give it a good few weeks of consistently having a go.
