We usually do betime around 9. We've had some comments about how it's late, but we feel like it's ok for our family right now. The kids wake up around 8 in the morning and since I SAH it works with our schedule.
What time do you put your kids to bed?

She dropped her nap and started preschool so I aim for 8 most nights. It used to be much later when we she napped.

Between 8-8:30. I aim to be closing his door at 8, but it rarely happens. He gets. up between 6:15-6:30.

My kid sleeps 8-8. But if you're cool with 9pm I don't see an issue with it!

Between 6:30-7pm. DS (12.5 mo) usually wakes up between 6:30-7am so we get extra time to ourselves at night but an early wake up call!

7. I wish it were a little later, we have so little time between getting home and bedtime.

1900-1930 for my big girl (she's almost three) and 1930-2000 for my wee dude (almost six months). We've never really done the early bedtime thing but now that my girl is at preschool and no longer napping I try to have her in bed as early as I can.

Around 10:30 for my 4 month old. I'd rather her sleep and my sleep be as similarly timed as possible for now.

Between 11-midnight for my 8 week old. I'm looking forward to it shifting earlier.

@Boogs: 8. It was closer to 9 until she was getting close to starting preschool (this week.)

DD: 6:30-7:30.

6:30 PM for 8 month old, 7 PM for 2.5 year old. Early bedtime is the only parenting thing I'm gung-ho about. It keeps my kiddos (and me!) relatively sane

between 7:30 and 8 most nights, but I do make an attempt on some nights for it to be earlier.

7:30/8 for my 3.5 month old. He wakes up about 6-7, is awake for an hour then falls back asleep until 9.

7 - 7:30PM, and he usually falls asleeps within 10 - 15 mins. He usually is awake before 7:20AM (when our first alarm goes off), but he just rolls around in the crib until we go get him, usually around 7:45. This morning he slept in til 8:30AM and we were shocked!

Our 2 year olds bedtime has been 7 since forever and it doesn't look to be changing anytime soon. She sleeps until 7:30, like clockwork. Naps at about 10:30 for an hour or so and is in bed by 7-7:30

9 pm school nights. 10 pm weekends
DD gets up at 7:30 on school days and on weekends we all get up between 10 and 11 am

8:30ish.. Sometimes 9 pm. He's almost 26 months.
Up until he was 1/1.5, he went to bed at 6 pm! Then it just gradually became later. He normally wakes up around 7ish. He has never been a long night sleeper - he sleeps 10 hours at night, sometimes less. But he normally takes 2.5-3 hour nap.

Now that I'm home on mat leave, it's anywhere from 8-9 pm for the two year old (depending on if she naps 2 or 3 hours). She wakes 10 hours after she goes to sleep, and always has. When I'm working, she's in bed at 7:30, but wakes at 5:30 (that's a bummer).
The baby has her longest stretch of sleep from about 10:30 pm-3 am. She doesn't have a consistent bed time at 7 weeks old though.

Anywhere from 9-9:30 most of the time for my 3 month old. Some mornings I wake her at 6:30, other mornings she wakes on her own around 6 or so. I would love to be closer to an 8-8:30 bedtime but we'll see.
