Manitobans prepare for daylight saving time change as clocks turn back one hour

Daylight saving time ends in Manitoba on Sunday, requiring clocks to be set back one hour. This change may disrupt sleep routines for children and adults, as kids may wake up an hour earlier than usual. Pediatric sleep consultant Joleen Dilk Salyn suggests gradually adjusting children's schedules by 15 minutes each day. She notes that Halloween festivities may complicate this adjustment, as children may stay up later. To help kids adapt, Salyn recommends keeping the environment dark in the mornings and maintaining a consistent bedtime routine. Visual clocks can assist toddlers in understanding the time change.
