Sending the child to school, I met several familiar parents, and when they met and talked about the child's situation, one of the mothers asked: "What time does your child sleep?" My child went to bed too late and always refused to go to bed, and I was worried that he was not energetic enough in class during the day. ”
I really didn't expect that she didn't ask about the child's learning, but cared about the child's sleep. It seems that the problem of children sleeping is indeed more and more parental concern.
Sleeping is a very ordinary thing, just like we humans need to breathe. Sleep is one of the most natural things in our lives, 24 hours a day, and it accounts for at least a third of our time, that is, 8 hours.
Someone proposed: "Elementary school students sleep 10 hours a day, junior high school students 9 hours, high school students 8 hours, children before the age of 6, at least 11 hours, enough sleep time, so that children can get a good rest." ”
On the one hand, it is possible that parents do not pay attention to it, often take the child to sleep late, resulting in the child developing the habit of sleeping late; on the other hand, the child has a lot of homework, writes slowly, can not be done for a long time, and drags until it is very late to sleep.
For our children who are growing up, going to bed late often will not only affect the physical development of our children, but also have other disadvantages, let's take a look.
1. Children who often sleep late have no spirit during the day
Just like us adults, after staying up all night, the next day will be very mentally bad, always looking for a place to sleep, and some people will even sit in a chair and sleep.
Going to work listlessly, the work is not only not done well, but also very inefficient.
If our child often goes to bed late and does not have enough time at night to give the body and brain a good rest, the child will be unconscious the next day and dozing off in class.
Most importantly, due to mental fatigue in class during the day, children cannot concentrate on listening to the teacher's lectures, and the knowledge points are not remembered firmly. In the evening, go home to do homework, look at the knowledge points on the homework, straight hair, can not do.
This forms a cycle, the homework at night will not be done, procrastination is done until very late, and there is less time to sleep. During the day, there is no spirit in class, no attention to listening to lectures, and I can't remember what the teacher said.
Therefore, before the child goes to school, it is necessary to cultivate the habit of going to bed early. After the child goes to school, he will find that going to bed early can bring a lot of benefits to the child.
2. Children who often sleep late have poor immunity
Adults, children sleep late for a long time, which will make the body's immunity decline and be prone to colds.
I remember when the child first went to kindergarten, the children in the class, there are often 3 days of school, take 2 days off, which is the reason why the child's immunity is not enough.
Children who often sleep late, due to the serious lack of sleep time, the body can not be fully rested, coupled with the usual lack of attention to supplementing balanced, adequate nutrition, it is easy to cause, the decline of body immunity.
Therefore, if you want your child to be healthy, you must ensure that your child has enough sleep time every day.
Since the impact of late sleep on children is so great, then we must find a way to let children go to bed earlier. Next, I will share with you a few ways to let your child go to bed early, and the test is effective.
1. Treat your child's sleep as a big thing and prepare a fixed sleeping ceremony
In our adult cognition, we often feel that the child does not want to sleep, that is, he is not sleepy. Continue to let the child play, as long as the child is tired of playing, he will go to sleep.
Every time the child is connived by adults, he will have a lot of fun, and finally he will be exhausted, fall on the sofa, and even lie on the ground, and fall asleep. Such sleep, the quality will not be very good.
Children have good sleep habits and cannot be expected to develop independently. It must be under the guidance of parents and after many times of companionship that you will develop a habit.
For example, every night, mom and dad, fixed at each time point, began to accompany the child to read a picture book, tell a story, through this fixed ritual, let the child fall asleep in a quiet environment, sleep quality is guaranteed, than play crazy, play tired after falling asleep, the effect is much better.
2, give the child a comfortable room, let the child like to sleep in the room
How important is it for a child to have a room to sleep in? I feel like I have a say. When my daughter had not yet graduated from kindergarten, I planned to arrange for her to sleep alone.
I watched my daughter fall asleep and thought it would be okay. Who knew that every time my daughter woke up in the middle of the night, she would run back to my room and get into my quilt. I asked her, "Why do you have to find your mother to sleep?" ”
Daughter: "I don't like that room, I'm a little scared. ”
I discussed it with my husband and rearranged the room where my daughter slept, all of which were decorated likes by my daughter. When the arrangement was completed, the daughter liked it for the first time, circled around the room, and slept in the room until dawn that night.
3, the right amount of exercise, is to let the child go to bed early skills
Just like us adults, do a moderate amount of exercise during the day and sleep well that night. When you wake up the next day, you will be refreshed and feel that life is so wonderful.
And our children, it can be said that they are energetic, do not look for opportunities to let children consume energy, let them go to bed early at night may have some difficulties.
Then, we let our children run more during the day and do a little exercise. If you exercise more during the day and eat well, your body will be healthy, and you will naturally sleep soundly at night, and the quality of sleep will be high.
Written in the end: Parents should remember that to help children develop good sleep habits, it is not the child who is tired to go to sleep, but when the time comes, the child should go to sleep. Before the child develops the habit of sleeping, it is recommended that the parents accompany the child to sleep at the time of the child's sleep. Children can sleep well every night to better prepare for the next day's life. (The picture is from the network, if there is infringement, it must be deleted)
