Has bedtime at your place been getting a bit bonkers lately? If so, you're not alone—it seems the excitement of the holidays combined with school break is making bedtime tough for parents everywhere (at least, that's what I'm hearing in the parent emails I'm getting).

So my Christmas gift to you: Here's a roundup of ten popular posts on bedtime, filled with tips for getting kids snoozing at night without a battle. Hope they'll help you get things back on track, so you can usher in a New Year filled with better bedtimes. (If you want even more bedtime advice, click "bedtime" in the list of topics in the left-hand sidebar to peruse dozens of posts on helping kids with bedtime troubles.) Happy sleeping!
