Bedtime turned into a nightly battle — what finally helped (a little)

My 4yo melts down every single night the moment I say "time for bed." Crying, negotiating, the works. Worst part is she's fine all day — laughs, plays, totally sweet. It's just that one transition that breaks us both. Few things I'm trying this week: One reminder, then go — instead of repeating myself 5 times, I give a single "5 more minutes, then bed" and follow through. Less back-and-forth = fewer openings to argue. A calm wind-down moment — two minutes of just sitting together before lights out, leaning on the fact that she loves goofing around with me. Trying to end the day warm, not with a fight. Tracking it in Starborn so I can actually see if "one reminder" nights are going better, instead of just feeling like every night is bad.
