Good sleeping habits contribute to the healthy growth of children

Children are the future of the motherland and the hope of mankind. They shoulder the sacred mission of prospering the motherland and strengthening the society. Therefore, their healthy growth is very important, and good sleeping habits are very important. So how can we help children have good sleeping habits?

1. Establish a bedtime ritual. When it’s time to go to bed, parents should dim the lights, turn off electronic devices, and create a suitable sleeping environment, because noise, light, and air can also affect children’s sleep.

2. Help children build up their belief. The bed can only be a place to sleep. In many families, the bed has too many functions. In addition to sleeping, it is also a platform for building blocks, a study platform, a trampoline, a slide, etc. In this way, children will want to do something else after getting into bed and will be reluctant to fall asleep. Therefore, try not to pile up sundries on the bed, and don’t let children play on the bed. Help children to have "situational training" with the bed - as soon as they get into the bed, they will have a conditioned reflex of "I want to calm down and get ready for bed", which will help them fall asleep as soon as possible.

3. Try to set a fixed sleeping time. It takes some time for the biological clock to develop, so parents should try to set a sleeping and waking time for their children so that their bodies can develop a regular routine. Parents should let their children know that they should not sleep only when they are tired, but must sleep when the time comes. For example, if you decide to go to bed at 21:00, you must go to bed at 20:30, and don't do anything unrelated to sleeping when you are in bed.

4. Firmly enforce your sleep rules. Once the sleep rules are established, it is more important for parents to enforce them than for children to comply with them.

The family is the first person responsible for the child and should do a good job of supervision. At the same time, the family and school should work together to ensure adequate sleep time and jointly promote the healthy growth of children!
