   How do you teach a child to sleep in a room?

   • Start by saying, “I understand you’re feeling scared and that’s a really hard feeling,” and then encourage bravery. So, a parent could tell their child they understand it can feel really frightening to sleep in one’s own room, and then explain they’re going to practice going to sleep in steps to overcome this worry.

   • Other routines like a warm bath before bed and using bed only for sleep also help. If kids wake up in the middle of the night, it’s best to send them back to bed right away. If your child still can’t sleep after making changes like these, it’s time to talk to their pediatrician.

   • Label your emotions. You can teach this skill by letting your child know it’s okay to be mad or sad. It’s important to support them as they discover what they feel.
   • Make a plan. When coping with stressful situations or uncomfortable emotions, it can be helpful for children to put down coping strategies on paper, so they can look at them whenever they need a reminder.
   • Teach coping techniques. Teach your children to practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and positive self-talk. They can use these techniques whenever a stressful situation occurs, whether they’re at school, sports practice, a friend’s house, or even at home.
   • Rely on your support system. Good self-care for kids isn’t always about coping on their own; sometimes it’s about turning to others for support. Whether it’s family members, friends, teachers, or coaches, it’s always a good idea to have a “team” of people who care about your child and are ready to help.
