Abstract in brief

  • Bedtime routines are linked to various aspects of child wellbeing and development, beyond just sleep quality.
  • The study involved 50 families with children aged 3-5, examining factors like parenting style, school readiness, dental health, and executive function.
  • Children with optimal bedtime routines performed better in executive functions (working memory, inhibition, attention, cognitive flexibility), scored higher in school readiness, had better dental health, and their parents tended to use more positive (authoritative) parenting styles.]
