L.C.
When my oldest child child would wake up early like that we bought one of the little crib nightlights that plays music (about 4"x5"). We put it by her pillow and told her that when she woke up she could not get out of bed yet but she could push the music play button on the nightlight and close her eyes. She could do this as may times ad she wanted but she had to wait for us to get up before she could. She was right at 2 years old. She liked that she could play the music when she wanted and the light would come on when the music did so she could also do little hand actions with the music. Eventually, she would go back to sleep after the first time of pushing the music button. This really helped us.
