Sleep Tips for Children | Greenfield Medical Centre

 A good night’s sleep is essential for your child’s happiness, health, and development! Did you know that children ages 3 to 5 need 10-13 hours of sleep, ages 6 to 13 need 9-11 hours, and teens ages 14 to 17 require 8-10 hours of sleep? A regular sleep routine helps your child focus better, improves their memory, and boosts their mood.

Here are some tips to ensure your child gets quality sleep:

• Set a bedtime schedule and stick to it, even on weekends.
• Create a calming bedtime routine like a bath, brushing teeth, and quiet time.
• Help your child unwind with soft music or reading.
• Turn off technology an hour before bed for better sleep.
