Hi --
Think about just what he's eating, especially in the evening. It
needn't be caffeine or sugar, just something that keeps *him* awake.
One of my kids had trouble digesting milk. We took milk out of his
diet, and his sleep issues practically disappeared. (Not saying milk is
his problem, just that *something* unsuspected might be.)
Another thing we did at this age was to *tell* the kids a short story,
and then have them think about the ending as they tried to fall asleep.
Good luck,
