‘A yawn is quite catching, you see. Like a cough. It just takes one yawn To start other yawns off’

Do you remember that I have a super power? My super power is snoozing!

Some people read books before they go to sleep to help them relax. Do you do that?

I like to go to sleep in lots of different places. On the floor, in my bed, on the stair, in Lesley’s office, in a meeting, in Calvin’s office, in the conference room… I can sleep in lots of places.

I know that some people find going to sleep harder. Sometimes we forget to have enough relaxation time before we go to bed so our brains are too busy to go to sleep. Things like technology can make this worse because the light is so bright.

When I go to bed at night I have a routine. I know when Lesley stands up and says ‘bedtime’ that things are going to happen. I notice what happens (this is a useful skill). She does different things than she does at other times when she stands up for example she turns the lights off, she always makes me go to the toilet, she gives me a special teeth cleaner and I have to have my special medicine too from when I was a poorly pup last year. Then she says ‘bed time’ again and I know it’s time to go to sleep in my own bed. I know then that I have to stay there until the morning.

How do you get to sleep? Do you read before you go to sleep? Or listen to music? Do you have a routine?

I am lucky because snoozing is my super power!
