What a great plan. I agree with you, @kristin816, there is probably a fine balance between providing distractions and having restful times.
I am glad to hear that the time-release melatonin is working well for him. If you don't mind sharing more, how soon, before bedtime does he take the melatonin?

I believe he takes it right before bed - he usually has no problem going to sleep - falls to sleep watching baseball game etc .. so it is really to keep him asleep. He used to sleep for 4 hours and get up for a few hour to read etc ... so keeping him asleep for 6+ is our desire.
