sleepy time
Time for bed
Sleepy time is the period for sleep, especially as spoken to or by young children: It's sleepy time, sweetie.
The phrase has a cozy, bedtime-story quality.
It appears in product names for things meant to promote rest—herbal teas, children's books, lullaby albums.
Adults may use it playfully or ironically: I'm ready for sleepy time.
