HELP!

How do you get a 3.5yr old to stay in bed???

This one is doing my head in.

I have all the right solutions for wearing them out - ball play, balloon play, outdoor play, tickle play, food play ... the list is endless.

And yet, I cannot get my little man to simply close his eyes and drift sweetly off to sleep. The whole getting to sleep process can take anywhere from 30 - 120 minutes depending on I don't know what!!

Across the room, his little brother, 21 months younger, is sleeping soundly. Totally programmed for lights out, eyes closed and off to sleep usually within about 2 minutes. Just like his mummy :D

So, help me if you can, I'm feeling drained......
