Toddler bedtime can sometimes be a nightmare for the parents. Many young children simply don't want to end their day and go to bed at night. In order to make the transition into sleep as smooth as possible for your little one, you may want to try out some of the following techniques.
The most important consideration should be consistency in your toddler's bedtime and waking time. If your child gets used to a specific schedule, then it will be easier for him to get to bed at night. The sooner you establish a routine, the easier it will be over the long term to get him to sleep without a fuss.

The lead-up to bedtime should be the same each night. Make sure any activities are quiet and restful. Give your little one a snack, tell a bedtime story, pop in a brief video or play a quiet game. Keep to the same routine every night.
Don't lie down in bed with your toddler, waiting for him to fall asleep. This may end up causing the reverse reaction, stimulating your little one to remain wakeful and demand more attention. A better approach would be to tell your toddler that you need to get something done and you will be right back to check on him. It is very likely that your child will fall asleep before you return.
Another approach is to discuss the events of your toddler's day. The mood should remain calm and soothing, and your child should not become too excited in the process. Some parents turn this into story time, featuring their toddler in the starring role.
Once you've established a routine for toddler bedtime, and as your child gets older, then the job will become so much simpler. Bedtime could even become an event that is looked forward to by your child as a special family time. Remember that children thrive on consistency and repetition. However, if your child continually resists sleep, it may be a good idea to consult your pediatrician to rule out any medical causes for the behavior.
