She loves it. To our surprise, the transition went very smoothly. She goes to bed with ease and never gets out of her bed. When she wakes in the morning or after her nap she calls for us to come to her room...and there she sits happily in her bed amongst all her baby dolls.
Evelyn continues to be a night owl and despite being put to bed by 8pm, she talks and sings until at least 9pm, sometimes later (it is currently 9:20pm and I can hear her carrying on a conversation with her baby dolls). No matter what we do this seems to be her natural rhythm. The best thing about her being a night owl is that she sleeps in. She is rarely up before 7:30am. It is great!
She got this great clock for Christmas that you can program to light up (soft yellow night light) when it is time for bed and turn green when it is ok to wake up and get out of bed in the morning. It is also an alarm clock and a time teaching tool. We are using it as a night light right now but we have heard from friends that it works well for reminding their children to stay in bed until the clock gives the green light.
