Americans can get an extra hour in bed this weekend as the clocks “fall back” for daylight saving time, but parents of little ones may not be so lucky.

Luckily, child sleep consultant Amanda (@dreamologybyamanda_) promises there are strategies to help your kids wake up later this Sunday.

And bonus points if that means catching a few more ZZZs—or getting some extra quiet time in the morning—for mom and dad.

While you may not feel that hour-long difference as an adult, children may be more affected by a change in their snooze schedule.

“Young children need more sleep and do not tolerate sleep deprivation as well as adults,” Daniel Lewin, PhD, former associate director of sleep medicine at Children’s National Hospital in Washington, DC, told Parents last year. “The loss of just one hour can really affect a child’s attention span, appetite and overall mood.”

While it’s too late to implement Amanda’s first tip of moving a child’s wake time forward by ten minutes every day for a week, her second option comes in just below the wire.

“On the weekend leading up to Daylight Savings Time, you’ll want to extend your wake-up window by five to 15 minutes,” she told her TikTok followers. “The tricky thing about this option is that you don’t want your child to get overtired. So if your child gets overtired easily, this may not be the best option for you.”

So tonight the children can go to bed about fifteen minutes later, with the aim of getting them out of bed fifteen minutes later on Saturday. That night, bedtime is pushed back another 15 minutes, with a later wake-up on Sunday – and by Monday morning they’ll hopefully be up just in time for school or daycare.

Dr. Lewin agrees that a gradual adjustment like this “is not so much of a shock to the system.”

Finally, Amanda’s third option is to do nothing at all. She noted that some kids might like the service — and if not, they’ll catch up in a few days.

Implementing a good bedtime routine this weekend — and every night — will also make the adjustment easier for everyone, said Dr. Mario Bialostozky, MD, associate chief quality officer at Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego.

“Routine is really key,” she told Blue Shield of California. “Children thrive on routines and consistency. They do best if they go to bed at the same time every day, even on weekends.”
