Children need plenty of sleep to feel and do
their best. Getting enough sleep helps them
have fewer mood swings and better control
of their emotions. It may help them reduce
their risk for obesity and diabetes.
If your child is older and in school, getting
enough sleep will help them think, remember
information, solve problems, and learn.
Here is how much sleep children should get
per day, including naps:
•
Newborns: 16-18 hours
•
Toddlers: 12-14 hours
•
Preschool Age Children: 11-12 hours
•
School Age Children: At least 10 hours
•
Teens: 9-10 hours
