Massaging your child, especially before bedtime, will help calm your child's parasympathetic nervous system. Calming their nervous system will encourage a peaceful night's sleep, perfect for active little toddlers! A gentle massage, even on the shoulders, is a lovely way to reconnect with older children too.
