Introducing the 4 b’S

The Bee 4 Goodnight book introduces four basic principles, or 4 B’s, to help children ease into a bedtime routine. These four concepts, also known as the stations of goodnight, harness the power of visual learning to instill the lessons behind each concept. Introducing the 4 B’s.

Purchase the Book

Bath

This station of goodnight encourages cleanliness. Whether it’s a full bath or washing up before bed, your child will be excited to race you to the first station of goodnight.

Brush

This station of goodnight encourages oral hygiene. Using a fun sing-along tune, your child will learn to enjoy brushing their teeth and doing it with impressive results!

Book

This station of goodnight encourages learning and helps calm your child’s mind. Having an exciting book waiting before bed will keep your child motivated through the first two stations.

Bed

The last station of goodnight encourages a full night’s rest. By the time your child has made it through the other stations, their mind and body will be ready for a good night’s sleep.

Hygiene Made Fun

Routines

Children thrive on routine, as it gives them a sense of predictability and self-control. Bee 4 Goodnight is an easy-to-learn routine that children will love and quickly master.

Attachment

A secure attachment style is nurtured through how caregivers meet their children’s needs. By providing fun and predictable routines that you participate in with your child, you are doing the necessary work to help your child’s early development.

Family Time

Well-established routines for the entire family are a great way to reinforce the importance of routine while also spending quality time as a family unit. This will further strengthen family bonds and help children develop healthy attachments.

Rules

Establishing a set of healthy family rules and routines helps children understand what is and is not okay, and it lays the groundwork for their ability to follow rules in other places, such as schools. Healthy expectations and rules are foundational to a child’s ability to thrive.

Young children really like rules. They like things that are very clear. They like knowing which actions and behaviors are allowed and which ones are not allowed.

GOOD HYGIENE

Never before has hygiene been more critical than it is now. An established routine emphasizing cleanliness and strong oral hygiene is essential as it ensures that our children step into the world with a solid understanding of hygienic practices.
