Soothing those little ones so that they get a good nights sleep!  Half an hour or so before bedtime, let them have a small glass of milk.  Milk contains tryptophan, which induces sleepiness.  Also, a warm bath about an hour before bed, LOTS of snuggling and gentle skin contact like a backrub, a bedtime story, a warm, friendly tuck in, a night light and a tape recorder with bedtime stories all help soothe children to sleep.
