With the start of school approaching, many parents are starting to panic about stocking up on stationery, purchasing new uniform and preparing their children for life back behind a desk.

With that in mind, one company has created a handy tool for parents to create a sleeping schedule for their child to get them used to going to bed and waking up on time for the new academic year.

Parents using the Back-to-School Sleep Calculator enter their child’s age, the typical times they go to bed and wake up during the school holidays.

They also input the date their new school term starts and the time they need to get up during the new school term.

The Back-to-School Sleep Calculator then generates a tailored sleep schedule for parents, spanning the nights left of their child’s holiday. 

This outlines the ideal time the child should go to sleep and wake up at to ease them into their term-time routine.

So, if your child is four years old, went to bed in the holidays at 8pm and woke up at 9am and needs to wake up at 7am for school, the calculator will work out a suitable schedule. 

With the child returning to school in 17 days, the calculator suggests that on the first night, your child should go to bed at 7.58pm and wake at 8.52am. Each day it calculates a time for your child to go to bed and wake up to ease them back into going back to school and ensuring they wake up on time feeling well-rested.

A clever calculator creates a sleeping schedule to get kids ready to wake up early to go back to school. Parents using the Back-to-School Sleep Calculator enter their child’s age, the typical times they go to bed and wake up during the school holidays and what time they need to wake up in the term-time

Explaining the results, the company, web-blinds.com, say children of different ages need different amounts of sleep to feel refreshed and alert in the morning.

Long periods of changeable sleep patterns can make bedtime routines difficult to adapt. So, the Back-to-School Sleep Calculator generates personalised sleep schedules, using a child’s age, their typical bedtime in the school holidays, the time they wake in the school holidays, the date their new school term starts and the time they need to get up during the new school term.

Each tailored sleep schedule spans as many days as are available to make getting a child into a bedtime routine as fuss-free as possible.

‘Slipping out of a structured routine can be much easier than getting into one – especially after six or seven weeks of late nights and long lie-ins,’ said a spokesperson.

‘That’s why the Back-to-School Sleep Calculator eases children into their term-time sleep pattern over as many days as possible.’
