Tips for Healthy Sleep in Children
- Consistent Bedtime Routine
: Establishing a consistent bedtime routine helps signal to your child that it's time to wind down. This can include activities like reading, gentle music, or a warm bath.
- Optimal Sleep Environment: Ensure your child's sleep environment is comfortable and conducive to rest. This includes a cool, dark room with minimal distractions.
- Limit Screen Time Before Bed: Screen time close to bedtime can interfere with sleep. Establish a screen-free period before bedtime to promote better sleep quality.
