So our new kindergarten son, needs 12 hours of sleep every night. It's just a fact and he gets grumpy without it. Reality is this is getting pretty tough sometimes. Most school nights he sleeps from 7:30- 7:30 but that 7:30 bedtime just can not always happen now that he is playing fall baseball. I get a lot of flack from people that can not believe I put him to bed at 7:30 as often as we can. None- school nights he often sleeps from 9-9. Still his 12 hours. So, are we normal? How much sleep do your little ones need and get?
