Say your LO is super cranky, it's been a long day and both you and LO are just over it. What is the earliest you can put them to bed without ruining the entire night?
My kids go to bed around 8:00(LO2) and 8:30 (LO1), I can get away with a half hour earlier for both, but they do take a little longer to fall asleep and wake up earlier, but they will STTN still.

Ds: anywhere between 5-7 depending on how tired he is!
Dd: about 7:30 but she usually takes longer to fall asleep

She never falls asleep early. Ever. We start bedtime at 7:30 and I highly doubt she would be able to handle 7pm. She doesn't fall asleep until 8:30/9.

My 15 month old is typically in bed by 630. I've put her to bed at 545 recently and it was fine
My 2.5 year old ( actually we're closer to 3 now!) Her bedtime is usually 7-730, but I've been known to put her to bed at 645

DS' bedtime is 730pm and the earliest I usually do is 7pm. He doesn't sleep more than 11-12 hours unless he's getting over an illness so it just means earlier mornings.

Xander (3) - 8:00, unless he skipped his nap, then 7:30
Logan (17m) - 6:00 if he didn't nap well!

E goes to bed at 7pm. I sometimes put her down as early as 6 if she's super exhausted, but I can expect a 6am wake up if I do! She's almost 3 and dropped her last nap at 2.5.

DS1 - 7:30 - he goes to bed around 8, but doesn't nap and is up for the day by 7.
DS2 - 7 - he takes one nap, but by bed time is pretty tired. However, he doesn't sleep 12 hours at night so 7 means he's up by 6!

If it's obvious they need it? 7. Bedtime here is 7:30

Bedtime is normally about 6:30 but they just switched to one nap at daycare (which she isn't totally ready for) so tonight for example she started signing sleep at the end of dinner around 5ish (started dinner early) and was asleep by 5:40. I have to wake her up early in the am to leave so no concerns about her waking up too early over here! She is not the greatest sleeper but I am thankful she will go to bed early if she's not slept enough during the day.
Earliest we've done bedtime is probably around 5!

Bed time is 7:00 for my 3 year old.
If she didn't nap, and was up late/up early the night before, she will pass out at 6pm and sleep until her usual wake up time (6am). If she just didn't nap well, I only go up by about 30 min.

Probably 7:30, but DH doesn't come home until 8, so his bedtime is @ 8:30.
