Sleepy Time!
by Jen Holfinger

My parents tell me that getting into a bedtime routine is good for my body and brain.
Mis padres me dijeron que entrar en una rutina de la hora de dormir es bueno para mi cuerpo y el cerebro.

So, I set a goal to get into a good bedtime routine for my health.
Por lo tanto, me puse la meta de entrar en una buena rutina de dormir para mi salud.

I decide what order I want my routine to be in and then I write it down to remember.
Yo decido lo que quiero para mi rutina para estar en y luego lo escribo para recordar.

My family helps me decide what should be in my bedtime routine and in what order my routine should be.
Mi familia me ayuda a decidir lo que debería ser en mi rutina de acostarse y qué orden mi rutina debe estar adentro.

Now I decide to put my bedtime routine into action!
Ahora decido de poner mi rutina de dormir en acción!

First, I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth.
Primero, voy al baño y me lavo los dientes.

Second, I wash my face and ask my parents to brush my hair.
Segundo, me lavo la cara y le pido a mis padres a cepillarse el pelo.

Third, I put on my pajamas and ask my parents to read me a bedtime story to help me relax.
Tercera, me puse el pijama y le pido a mis padres para que me lea un cuento antes de dormir para ayudar a relajarme.

Lastly, I ask my parents to tuck me in and turn off the light.
Por último, pido a mis padres para que me envolvía y apagar la luz.

My sleep routine helps me sleep well and feel rested for the next day! Sleep is important for my health.
Mi rutina de sueño me ayuda a dormir bien y me siento descansado para el día siguiente! Sueño es importante para mi salud.

The End!
El Fin!
