You might try to give your son a time or two during the day (depending on how old he is) of just some down time, quiet reading, calm movie, music or just quietly laying.  Keep it brief just 10 - 15 minutes.  As far as night time I would figure out the bed time that would fit him and would be appropriate and then I would put in your routine some rigorous physical play/exercise anything.  Then have time to clean up, have a healthy/sugar free snack and wind down.  Give 10 min, then 5 min, warning for bedtime and depending again on how old he is, he could have some time in bed himself to read quietly.  If he doesn't read yet, or if it would be more appropriate, spend 15-20 minutes in his room, with him in bed, reading to him.  I have 4 children and all 4 are different.  But pretty much this type of routine has worked well for all of them.   SEO
