I'll give you a great helpful hint about sleeping. Have some lavender oil in the room where you want someone to rest peacfully!
What almost always worked for me was, I would actually have to wrestle my son to the ground then I would start to rub his feet. This helps in several ways. First of all, when you have hold of their feet they cannot run away, and secondly once you start rubbing them they usually stop squrming! If you can get any lavender oil, make sure it is either massage oil or buy the 100% pure oil and add about 2 drops for a quarter of a cup of any kind of cooking oil and this will further the relaxation!
This blend will not keep, so either use it up soon or make less.
After you do this a few times you will find that they will give in faster all of the time. They like the feel of it but they really don't want you to know that!
It usually helps too if you rub their back with it.
Some people like think the reflexology & aromatherapy parts are the reason for the deep relaxation, but I as a MOTHER don't really care why! It just helps!
Take care!!!
P.S. I also always put a cotton ball with 1 drop of lavender essential oil on it in everyone's pillow in my house. Men usually quit complaining about it in a couple of days!

I can help from a head ache to a child that cannot sit for 2 seconds! There is always an answer, sometimes it is just harder to find!
