How sleep helps children become smarter and
sharper
In Daycare Whittier CA children are often active
throughout the day. It's difficult to get kids to
sit quietly for various commitments. But,
contrary to our expectations, their enthusiasm
for physical activities never wanes. Their minds
are always looking for new information to digest,
and their curiosity drives them to study anything
they can get their hands on.

Children's cognitive talents blossom as they
study areas that nourish their ever-growing
cerebral powers. A significant amount of a
child's mental development occurs before the age
of five. Aside from food and nutrition, another
everyday activity that contributes to their
overall development is sleep. Throughout the day,
our heart, lungs, brain, and kidneys are always
working. Sleeping at night allows them to
re-energize. Our bodies require adequate sleep
for the development of excellent mental health.
Sleep deprivation can result in irreversible
problems, including mental health concerns.

Similarly, preschool children must obtain the
recommended number of hours of sleep each day.
The younger the child, the longer he must sleep.
The brain not only relaxes during sleep but also
processes all information through memory
consolidation. That is how they form memories for
scent, touch, sight, sound, vocabulary,
incidents, hazards, pleasant times, and so on.
Below are some routines that you can apply to
make your kid sleep

1. Stick to a sleep schedule Having a consistent
time for getting up and going to bed every day
helps to set our biological clock. Practicing the
practice daily from a young age is useful in the
long term. Furthermore, a sleep regimen ensures
that the child's daily sleep need is met, which
is critical for their general development. It
also encourages children to stay active
throughout the day. 2. Make sleep a top
priority Parents must arrange their children's
feeding and sleep schedules. Sticking to a
regular nighttime routine gives children a sense
of security because it provides regularity. They
begin responding appropriately, which helps them
to quickly become used to their environment.

3. Restrict your socializing Unexpected family
gatherings, celebrations, festivals, and so on
occur in our lives, and while it is desirable to
engage children in these ceremonies, their
participation must be limited. This causes a
disruption in their Circadian Rhythm (a natural,
internal mechanism that governs the sleep-wake
cycle and occurs about every 24 hours), which
frequently results in slouching, restlessness,
and nausea. 4. Get enough sleep for their
age It is a well-known truth that mental growth
in children happens most rapidly from birth until
the age of five. Infants require around 16 hours
of sleep each day, which decreases with age. By
the age of five, children require 8 to 10 hours
of sleep every day, including nap time and night
sleep.

5. Restrict screen time before going to
bed Nowadays, children have access to cell
phones and the internet. Prolonged exposure to
mobile displays harms their eyes and hampers
their creativity. Watching cartoons, etc., before
going to bed coils up their thoughts, making it
harder for them to go asleep. Preschool children
may experience nightmares because of this.
