I am supposed to be in bed at 8 p.m. but it's good because sometimes somebody phones or there is a TV programme on and Mum forgets to tell me to go to bed until 9. I try and play quietly in the playroom so she doesn't remember. If I ask specially to stay up to watch an 007 movie I might be allowed - I love them.

My bedtime is normally about 8 o'clock p.m. I would never remind Mum to look at the clock. I am always very good when I go to bed and I brush my teeth. Sometimes my mum reads to me in bed and sometimes I read to myself - and if I have friends staying over we always end up talking till very late.

I love my bed and sleep so I don't mind going to bed at 8 p.m. on school nights. My brother Niall and I always read comics in bed - we get the Beano every week. We do laugh quite a lot at some of the stories but I always manage to sleep as soon as the light is turned off. That is at half past eight. I am never tired in the morning.

I go to bed at half past eight and I'm allowed to read till ten-to-nine. I read to myself or sometimes Mum or Dad will read to me. They always read easy books so I like to read to myself from the annual. If there is football or something on TV I ask my dad if I can stay up for just ten more minutes.

Ciara McEvoy

I go to bed at 8 p.m. Sometimes I want to stay up later to watch Who wants to be a Millionaire? I always read in bed - I love Goosebumps books. I like to take a torch to bed so I can read under the covers. It's really annoying if I'm at a really good bit and the batteries run down - then I have to wait till the next day to find out what happens.

Ciara Farrell

I go to bed at 8 p.m. I take a glass of milk with me - if you don't drink it all it tastes horrible the next morning. I like reading Goosebumps - they aren't scary books at all, they're really just funny. When it was my cousin's wedding I stayed up until one in the morning. I didn't get out of bed the next day after that 'til 11.
