Well if you went for the same shade as I'm after good luck with the muddy footprints.

Next cheapest I can find now is around the £20 m2 still cheaper than tile giant. Just need the tiler to measure, hopefully he is coming tomorrow....

At the end of my tether with my DD at bedtime anyone have any miracle solutions for getting a 6 year old to go to bed and stay there without having a full on screaming hissy fit every night?!
We do the whole wind down routine no tv or devices on, shower or bath followed by some fruit and warm milk, tucked up in bed and then read a chapter or 2 of a book. And then all hell breaks loose *sigh*

What's the hissy fit about? You leaving the room ? Something else? Does she have tantrums at any other time?

on my COS the yeo valley yogs are showing as valid from 19th Feb - 12 April, so, does this mean they will still be there tomorrow and i can grab them for free if buying in Sainsbobs tomorrow?.

On my COS the various flavours of COS have different expiry dates - is it the same for everyone ?

Is there a reason behind it? Is she scared? Too dark? Too light creating shadows? Doesn't like the door shut/open? Scared she's missing out?

Bribery. I used to get my DS to do most of the things I wanted him to when he was that age by "rewarding" good behaviour with a hot wheels car.

Perhaps you can offer your DD an inexpensive item in exchange for going to bed when she should and staying there. She should be given the reward upon waking.

After a while it should no longer be necessary to offer the "reward".

All 7 days for me.

Persevering and routine will get it there eventually. Closing eyes and counting backwards is a good way to drop off to sleep, used to practise it with DD and turn it into a game and in the morning we used to say what number we could last remember getting to before going off. When we went on a school trip for 4 nights I was the one who did the rounds comforting those who couldn't sleep/missing home etc and the counting worked for most of them too, I used to just make up a number to compare wiht them in morning

I would definitely go for a reward immediately in the morning if they have stayed in bed without a fuss - could be as simple as a favourite treat for breakfast.

It ranges from she's not tired, she can't get to sleep, she just wants to speak to me. Basically anything to put it off and then when I don't entertain all that she throws a tantrum. She does have the odd moments during the day, but then what 6 year old doesn't?!

We started a reward chart thing, similar to what they have in her class at school where they collect table points, but when I started removing points for her continually getting out of bed she just got even more wild The threat of having her tablet and laptop time taken off her doesn't make a difference either. And I always follow through on that and take it off her the next day if that's what I've said I'll do.
