The Importance of Sleep
Primary school children require adequate sleep for their physical, emotional, and cognitive development. The amount of sleep needed can vary, but general guidelines suggest that school-aged children should aim for 10-11 hours of sleep per night.
This amount can be adjusted based on individual needs, developmental stage, and environmental factors. To ensure a healthy sleep pattern, parents should establish a consistent bedtime routine, create a conducive sleep environment, and minimize screen time before bed.
It is also important to address any sleep problems that may arise, such as anxiety or stress, and to consult a healthcare professional if necessary. Sleep is crucial for children's overall well-being, and addressing sleep issues early can lead to better health outcomes.
Parents can support their children's sleep by being consistent, providing a calming bedtime, and encouraging relaxation activities.
