Anyone else have a little one who is struggling to sleep with all the excitement of Christmas?

It’s almost Christmas, but many schools still haven’t broken up. The kids are exhausted, bedtimes are all over the place and excitement levels are very high! With everything going on and so many late nights, you’d think that the kids would be exhausted and wanting an early night, but instead, they are absolutely bouncing off the walls by bedtime…

Children deal with overtiredness in a very different way to adults and even though they may look wide awake and ready for action, their little heads and bodies are quite the opposite.

It’s so tempting to just let them keep going and “burn off” all the excess energy, but unfortunately it will only make it worse.

Keeping to a routine every night isn’t possible for everyone at this time of year, but understanding why your child is behaving like a Duracell bunny, may help to break the cycle.

Fidgetbum is a great way for kids to decompress before falling asleep. Lightweight and portable, it’s great for travelling over Christmas and New Year too.

💤 Transition to a big bed. 💤

The Christmas period is often a time when parents consider moving their toddlers into a big bed. Parents often have some time off over the period, to support that move and the upheaval it can create and a “big bed” can make a great Christmas gift. 🎁

But that move can come with its challenges: a child who feels unsettled in a new sleep space; the fact that covers can be kicked off more easily during the night and cause more night waking…

Fidgetbum can be used to help support that next sleep step. Many families have used Fidgetbum to make that move from a toddler bed or cot smoother, with fewer sleepless nights.

Our single bed size is our top seller. It’s light and portable, so can be taken to grandparents’ houses for any sleepovers planned over the festive period too. It is very washable too, so you can wash and dry in time to get back on the bed the same night.

We’re here to support all of your families sleep milestones this Christmas and help to ensure that they are fast asleep in time for Santa’s visit 🎅🏼

Fidgetbum is safety tested and approved from 18m+

DECEMBER: Traditionally, the busiest month of the year!

As parents, we struggle with the juggle of all the shopping and planning and parties and performances… and our children are both hyped up about Christmas and exhausted at the end of a long term. It’s a difficult combination and sleep can be in short supply at this time of year.

When we’re out of routine, we can become overstimulated, which can lead to mental and physical exhaustion. My 6 year old struggles emotionally at this time of year and the physical sensation of a hug is often the only thing that will calm and soothe her.

Fidgetbum is often described as giving a “hug” in bed, as it cuddles the user and provides a safe, cosy space to retreat to. So, when bedtime routines are upset and emotions are high, she can settle in her Fidgetbum at night and falls asleep much more quickly than without it.

A Christmas miracle? We can’t promise that, but thousands of families include Fidgetbum as part of their bedtime routine. So, if your child is struggling with kicking off bedcovers, or just feeling overwhelmed at this time of year, a Fidgetbum could make Christmas come early this year.

A Fidgetbum is a stretchy piece of fabric that goes around the mattress to help keep a child securely tucked in bed. It provides a gentle, calming pressure that can help kids feel safe and reduce nighttime restlessness, leading to better sleep.

Summer holidays can be a challenging time for parents, as the demands of keeping kids entertained, managing their energy, and balancing work and life can feel overwhelming. It’s easy to feel stretched thin when the days are long and routines are disrupted. Just remember that it’s okay to acknowledge the struggles that come with parenting during this time.

Remember, taking care of yourself is just as important as making memories.
