Daylight savings is coming up THIS SUNDAY!!! Don’t forget. You don’t want to show up to late to things! You’ll thank me later for reminding you! Since it’s spring we are going to “spring” our clocks forward an hour. By springing ahead, we may fall back on sleep. My tip in this post….don’t stay up late. Set your clocks forward so that you know what time it is and how much sleep you will get. Go to bed at your normal time. It might not be easy but it’s worth it! Now for kids, sometimes daylight saving can be a bear! I’m kind of nervous. At 5:00 the night before I’m going to set my clocks to 6:00 pm and just roll with it. They might not feel tired, but they will at least try to go to bed. I’m praying that my 6:30 early risers will start waking up later!
I’m no expert so lets move onto the real experts tips. I got to send in some interview questions to Kim West, AKA The Sleep Lady about daylight savings. She has a book out called The Sleep Lady®’s Good Night, Sleep Tight
Isn’t she awesome?I loved all of her great tips!
Check out this infographic Pampers put together from a survey they conducted about daylight savings…

Ugh I am so not ready for Daylights Savings Time! I like your idea of setting the clocks ahead at 5 so the kids think it’s later. I may do that same thing! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
I can’t stand daylight savings. It’s amazing how one hour can throw your whole family off! But! I do love diapers! I’m 18 weeks pregnant and even though I wouldn’t need a size 6 for a loong time, I’m stocking up as much as I can! I need to win one of your baby stuff give aways. I haven’t had a baby in a long time and all my stuff is behind the times. Haha. 🙂
Yeah you are having a baby!!! Do you know what you are having yet?
I don’t remember ever forgetting and I hope I never do! I would love to win this giveaway!
I have not forgot at least not that I recall. Hello and thank you for the giveaway!
Hello!!
I have never forgotten, But a co-worker has (or so they say) 🙂
I haven’t forgotten to do that, but the batteries in the clock at work did die and I was late picking my son up from school when he was in kindergarten!
I haven’t had that happen before! But what an awesome giveaway-thanks!
Hello! thanks for the giveaway! Have a great weekend!
I don’t remember doing that. But thank you so much for the fantastic giveaway!
When I was younger, my parents did it and we showed up in the middle of church service, but I’ve never done it as an adult myself. Thank you!
Oh yeah I have a forgotten day light savings story and its bad. I worked at Starbucks at the time and was supposed to be at work at 5 am. I was of course very late, but luckily they understood.
I was late for church!
i don’t think i’ve ever forgotten!
HELLO! I hope the switch to DST goes well for you.
We have forgotten a couple of times. We showed up at church too early!
Blarg… it’s Daylight Savings TIme! I’ve never forgotten to do it, but this is my first year doing it with a kid – I hope he adjusts OK!
It wasn’t due to DST, but I did miss a friend’s wedding because I forgot Georgia was in a different time zone. >:-(
I noticed the clock said 6 pm and my husband always come homes at 6 or ealier so I got worried and blew up his phone. Then 30 minutes later he called saying it was only 5:30 and he was heading home.
I haven’t forgotten to change them ever, but funny story, when we moved to Hawaii when I was in elementary school I went around and changed all of the clocks for daylight savings….. to find out that oops, they don’t change them lol. My Dad sure got a kick out of it 🙂
No I never have but I know people who did forget and were actually late to work.
I always remember – hello
Last time we changed time I changed my watch the opposite way. I was a little confused. *LOL* Sigh! kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you.
hello !
I am SO not a fan of day light savings time. I think it’s all kind of silly. There are many states that don’t partake in this and I wish we didn’t either. I really don’t see the point. I don’t remember ever forgetting to change the time and now our phones and gadgets all automatically change to the new time. Hello! 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win! Julie smartsavvymama@gmail.com
Yes! I actually was late to work and to take the kids to school. I didn’t have my phone on auto update of time .i thought gee, what’s going on here? Until i got to work and for in trouble. Now i try to stay on top of daylight savings time.
i haven’t forgotten, but one time my phone didnt update and i was late for work
I have not forgotten yet, so…hello!
I have never forgotten to change the time, always do it day before
I forgot to change it this morning. I was late for church. Oops.
I’ve never forgotten, but I HATE daylight savings time.
Yes, we were late to church that day! 🙂
I usually remember, but it never fails that bad luck happens that night! My five month old is usually an AWESOME sleeper….except last night…when I was already losing an hour.
Hello! I normally set mine like a day ahead of time. 😛 I LOVE daylight savings even though we lose an hour,
No, I usually always remember so I am on the right time when I wake up!
Hello!! 🙂
hello
Hello there!! Hope you had a good weekend
I fortunately have never forgotten. Oh and Hello!!
YES! I actually forgot this year lol. We were late to church
I didn’t forget this year!! :’D
I havent made that mistake yet and hope that I never do!
Not that i remember but I’m sure its happen before.
I haven’t forgetton in the sense that I was late or early for something but I there was the time I never bothered changing the time in the clock in my car. I just left it alone until the time changed again.
Yes, I am terrible about remembering to change my clock. I was always an hour late or early for school when the time changed. Thankfully I married someone who is on top of things like that for me and we have smarter technology that automatically updates the time.
I don’t think that has ever happened to me before
I have never forgot to reset my clock, thankfully it’s automatic.
I have forgotton to change my alarm clock before and I thought I woke up late!
Hello,thanks so very much for sharing.
