She’s my oldest girl and I am trying to figure out the average sleep time for kids that age.

8:30 bedtime and she wakes up anywhere between 7 and 7:30. If she had to be up earlier we would do an earlier bedtime. She used to go in at 8 and she wasn't really ready to sleep yet so she was up for a long time. 8:30 has been much better for her.

Officially 9:30 but really more like 10 or even later. Wakes up 8:30.

How do your kids wake up so late. Don't they have to be up for school

My kid goes to sleep 9-9:30 and wakes up 8-8:15. Leaves the house 8:45, school starts at 9.

I want her to be in bed 8:30 but in real life she goes into bed more like 9:30.
Has a hard time waking up at 7:45

Ideally 8pm. She has a lot of older siblings so it's not so easy, as she hears everyone still up and about.
Rarely awake after 9 though.
On a school day she's up at 6:50am.
On shabbat or no-school day she wakes up naturally at 8am-ish

My 8yo just came to me complaining that she has the earliest bedtime of all her friends. In truth she is upset because her 2 closest friends have much later bedtimes (they are also youngest children). I had her survey her classmates and she came back with the realization that her bedtime is middle of the road and not as early as she originally thought. It's 8:00 during the week and 8:15 on weekends.

My 8 yr old dd and 9 yr old ds have a bedtime of 8 and usually fall asleep between 815 and 830. DS is up before 6am everyday so many nights he falls asleep before 8 as well from being tired.

8:10 but this is interesting because I am noticing lately that she is pushing me to extend her bedtime to 8:30. Based on the posts here I realize I may have to.

Officially 8:30, but often she ends up going to bed around 9. That's for a school night. As the youngest Friday night and motzei shabbos don't really have bedtimes.

8:00 only because I need ds to also go into bed then. Otherwise I’d probably push it a bit.
