Sleep Training - Siblings in the Picture

If you are trying to sleep train one of your children but you have other siblings in the home obvious disruptions may occur. If your children are old enough, explain to them what you are doing and the importance of not interfering. Most of the time older children will
sleep through any crying or protesting that may occur, but if they don't, you can move them to a new area of the house for a few days or turn on a sound machine. Although everyone in the house may not get adequate sleep for a few days (hopefully not much longer than this :), it will be worth it in the long run.
