Early bedtime

I finally figured out after almost 8 years of being a mom, how to get the kids to go to bed early. I started trying to shed a few pounds (yeah again) and am into exercising right now. The other night the kids wanted to do it with me. So we went out front, ran two laps around the court, did jumping jacks and several other exercises. When we were done I stuck them in the bath and then read to them and they were out by 8pm. So then I thought "Ok this must be a fluke". So I did it again last night and sure enough....they went to bed early.
I wonder when they will catch on that they don't want to do this because it makes them tired. Right now they are loving the workout and I am loving the quite night (and watching them have fun exercising.
