<p class="has-medium-font-size">Kids seem have a infinite amount of energy, but especially before bedtime right? In order to burn some of that energy, there are evening activities for kids to do to wind down.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size">Burning kids energy before bedtime can help them get a better nights sleep. After you get their energy out, you can take a moment afterwards to wind them down and then it will be time for bedtime.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dance Party</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Put on some music and let the kids go crazy! </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Or if you don&#8217;t want them to just go crazy all over the house, you can put on a YouTube kids dance-a-long or sing-a-long video for them to follow along to and burn some energy.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">This always helped my kids burn some energy before it was time to wind down before bed. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Having an <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PF1Y28C/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&;camp=1789&;creative=9325&;creativeASIN=B07PF1Y28C&;linkCode=as2&;tag=mamabearrevie-20&;linkId=33a3d326ed4c541f3830ba12efe32262" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noreferrer noopener"><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">Amazon Echo Show</span></a> (or a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PGL2N7J/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&;camp=1789&;creative=9325&;creativeASIN=B07PGL2N7J&;linkCode=as2&;tag=mamabearrevie-20&;linkId=26a71a77fcf6d96e811a322af7e6d99a" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noreferrer noopener"><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">Echo Dot</span></a>) in the kitchen or living room has helped us! The kids can even tell her what song they want to dance along to also! </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Get Outside</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Even if it is just for a quick 10-15 minutes run around the backyard or ride bikes, just something to get them outside and moving. That will help burn that energy.</p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Fresh air can burn more energy just being out in the fresh air and not just stuck inside. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Indoor Obstacle Course</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">If you can&#8217;t get outside, you can make an obstacle course inside with pillows and blankets or toys in order to jump over or crawl under and have the kids race for time. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Creating an obstacle course even just a simple one can get kids mind as well as body moving to burn some energy with some evening activities. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Go on a Family Walk</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">This goes hand in hand with the get outside idea, but instead of having them run like crazy, maybe just take a walk around the neighborhood in the evening and have them point out objects that you find. Like an iSpy type game. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">They will love looking around and it will get their minds working and get them to focus and calm down.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Family Games</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Another idea for evening activities for kids would be to play a family game together. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">This gives you all an opportunity to get together as a family, even if the game is only 30 minutes long. Its a way for the family to connect together and get the kids to play nicely together instead of running around like monkeys in a zoo. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">If your kid has EXTRA energy in the evening, some may call this the witching hour, then maybe play a game that excerpts some energy. Something like the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003EGULF6/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&;camp=1789&;creative=9325&;creativeASIN=B003EGULF6&;linkCode=as2&;tag=mamabearrevie-20&;linkId=ffe3116395f6146b412e261df90878ba" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noreferrer noopener"><span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color">wii</span> </a>or some type of movement game to get the wiggles out before bedtime. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img src="https://mamabearreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Copy-of-Untitled-28.png" class="wp-image-8337" width="389" height="216"/></figure></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bath Time</h2>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Another way you can get your kids to wind down after they get some energy out is to take a relaxing bath. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">You can even add some <span class="has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color"><a href="https://www.youngliving.com/vo/#/signup/new-start?sponsorid=14972480&;enrollerid=14972480&;isocountrycode=US&;culture=en-US&;type=member" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noreferrer noopener">essential oils</a> </span>to the bath, like lavender, in order to make the bath even more calming and relaxing before bedtime. </p>
