WIND-DOWN

A gentler evening handover

Fast games and bright videos can make bedtime feel like an abrupt stop. A short bridge activity gives the brain and body a chance to slow down.

Try this in your family

End active games earlier than passive viewing.

Lower room brightness before the final warning.

Move directly into one familiar quiet activity.

Keep the device outside the sleeping area when practical.

Consistency matters more than perfection. A routine becomes easier when the words and sequence stay familiar.

Set the time and available apps before the handover, then let the visible limit support the boundary you have already explained.
