For families who prefer not to share a bed, there are alternatives that can still promote closeness and security. Some options include:
- Room Sharing: Having children sleep in their own beds within the same room.
- Sleepovers: Allowing children to have sleepovers with siblings or cousins for comfort.
- Storytime Rituals: Reading together as a bonding activity before bedtime.
- Affectionate Goodnights: Ensuring that children receive hugs and kisses before being tucked in.
