  1. We have a little routine that involves “night night”, “sleep tight”, “sweet dreams”, “see you in the morning” and “don’t let the bed bugs bite!” We have to go through all of them before my son will go to sleep! #brillblogposts

  2. Of course I am now trying to see how many of these languages I can identify! We say boring ‘night night’. I can add ‘nos da’, which is the Welsh. I had a Welsh ex & I learnt a few words & phrases in Welsh, a very few – I always quite liked nos da. It has a ring to it! #KCACOLS

  3. We say ‘n-night, sweet dreams’ or ‘See you in the morning, mummy’s little darling’, the second was what my mum used to say to me! #KCACOLS

  4. Sometimes we say to my son “lala Salama” which is Swahili because his father is Kenyan and it almost means sweet dreams.
    I always use “tesbahi ala khair” with my mother and siblings which is Arabic;
    with other relatives I say “Habeen wanaagsan” which is Somali because I’m Somali #KCACOLS

  5. I have LOOOOVED reading through these comments. I love all the traditions, especially the ones that have been passed down-how absolutely sweet!!! Oddly, we don’t have a tradition, we just mostly say goodnight. But that could also be because our son sleeps in our bed, hahaha! #KCACOLS

  6. I tend to say ‘go to bed go to bed go to bed go to bed’ about thirty times! Then a kiss and a see you in the morning when they have finally obliged ! #kcacols

  7. what a lovely post, my nan always said “night, god bless” and my mum would say “night night, sleep tight” with my little girl we say ” night night sweet dreams, see you in the morning” nice and simply but she now replies… “night night see ya morning” which is adorable x thanks for sharing x #eatsleepblogRT

    1. That’s beautiful, it’s lovely when there are sayings which are passed down through families, Mainy x

    1. Thank you!! I will google for how to pronounce properly, thank you so much 🙂 Mainy X

  8. It is usually Goodnight or night, night. In my sons case, nothing gets said at all as he spends most of his time hiding in his room lol x

  10. Nos da is welsh, I don’t really know why I know that.
    I usually go BED TIME…GO TO SLEEP!!! in a darth vader type voice…
    Thanks so much for linking up at #KCACOLS. Hope you come back again next Sunday

  11. We usually go on the silly side. Sometimes the usual ‘night’ or ‘night night’ or if we are being silly a faux threatening ‘get to sleep nowww (dragged out in a mockney accent)’ and a pointed finger and squinty eyes. Usually reserved for sleepovers when things are getting out of hand for a laugh though #kcacols

  12. We like an eskimo kiss – rubbing noses. I have no idea if actual eskimos do this, but my mum always did it with us and that’s what she called it. Sorry if that’s wrong! x Alice

  13. In our house my mum made up a rhyme that we used to say goodnight when she tucked us in. I now use it with my own children it is silly but we love it. First the adult says. ‘Nickey nackey noo, I love you’ then the child says ‘nickey nackey noo love you too’ #KCACOLS
