"Dream - One of the problems that parents often face is when their child has a difficult time waking up in the morning. Especially if they have started school, which requires them to wake up earlier and get ready."

Sometimes, even though parents have successfully persuaded their children to wake up, they still have to face other problems.

There are several tips that can be followed to prevent children from getting cranky in the morning. What are the tips?

<b>1.	Tidur Berkualitas</b>

1. Quality Sleep

Just like adults, children also need enough sleep. Jerry Bubrick, Senior Clinical Psychologist at The Child Mind Institute recommends that children sleep for eight hours a day.

"If a child lacks sleep, everything will become more difficult. We want sleep to become a rhythmic process, [without] chasing sleep time on weekends," said Dr. Jerry. Therefore, parents should set an alarm at the same time every morning, even though the activities done each day may vary."

<b>2.	Menu Bekal</b>

2. Lunch Menu

If possible, parents can prepare a meal plan and snacks in the evening beforehand. Let the little ones choose what food they want, but within reasonable limits.

"Ask the night before what the lunch plan for the next day will be if it is the parents who prepare it," said Ben Bernstein, PhD, an American performance psychologist. Give the child two options if Sahabat Dream can, this will make the child feel part of the decision-making process."

<b>3.	Tanyakan Rencana Aktivitas Anak</b>

3. Ask about the Child's Activity Plan

In order to prevent children from being fussy in the morning, parents can try asking a few things before bedtime. Communication between parents and children before bedtime like this can prevent stress in the morning, you know.

<b>4.	Jangan Berikan Gadget di Pagi Hari</b>

4. Do not Give Gadgets in the Morning

When waking up in the morning, children want to do activities that they find enjoyable, such as playing gadgets or watching television. To start a more productive day, keep the little one away from those activities.

"Playing games and watching TV should not be allowed in the morning before your child completes all their responsibilities first," said Bern. Dream's friend can use games and TV as motivation to quickly shower, get dressed, brush their teeth, have breakfast, and prepare their backpack. The faster the child gets ready for school, the more time there is to watch TV."
