Looking at your phone or surfing the Internet leads to sleep delays, work or study time crowds out sleep time, and the effects of sleep disorders such as insomnia.
Liu Xiya, a deputy to the National People's Congress and principal of Chongqing Xiejiawan School, pointed out that the reasons for the lack of sleep time of primary and secondary school students are complex and diverse, such as bad use habits of electronic products, mismatch between school time and biological clock, and heavy learning tasks inside and outside the classroom.
What are the dangers of not getting enough sleep in your child?
"Our team's research shows that for children and adolescents who are in the stage of rapid growth and development, sleep deprivation and biorhythm disorders will not only cause short-term inattention and decreased academic performance, but also in the long run are more likely to damage children's brain function, resulting in depression, anxiety, attention deficit, behavioral impulses and other emotional or behavioral problems in primary and secondary school students, significantly increasing the risk of metabolic diseases such as obesity, and damaging physical and mental health and academic development." Data from around the world show that about 25% of children have or have suffered from sleep problems, excessive use of electronic products, increasing academic pressure, etc., have become important factors affecting the time and quality of students' sleep. Jiang Fan, secretary of the party committee of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and director of the Children's Sleep Disorder Diagnosis and Treatment Center, said.
How to ensure the quality of my child's sleep?
In recent years, the problem of student sleep has attracted much attention. In order to ensure that primary and secondary school students enjoy sufficient sleep time and promote the healthy development of students' physical and mental health, in 2021, the General Office of the Ministry of Education issued the Notice on Further Strengthening the Sleep Management of Primary and Secondary School Students.
The Notice points out that sleep is crucial to promoting brain development, bone growth, vision protection, physical and mental health and improving learning ability and efficiency of primary and secondary school students. Schools in all localities should strengthen publicity and education through various channels and vigorously popularize scientific sleep knowledge.
Xu Fuhua, a deputy to the National People's Congress, suggested that high school students go to bed at 10 p.m. be written into the Law on the Protection of Minors.
In view of the problem of how to improve the quality of sleep, Liu Xiya suggested that it is necessary to make overall arrangements for work and rest time, schools should reasonably arrange morning, noon, and afternoon course learning and after-class rest, it is strictly forbidden to organize morning reading and other forms of disguised early class time, reasonably arrange the number, duration and method of recess, and explore ways to ensure the rest time and rest effect of students through the combination of long and short classes, one physical education class per day, and the class independently arranges the time and content of recess; teachers should base themselves on improving the effectiveness of classroom teaching and optimizing learning methods. Based on the individual differences of students, we explore the hierarchical design of assignments to improve the effectiveness of assignments. Guide the rational use of electronic products.
Let the child develop a good routine, parents remember these 6 points!
Children's behavior habits are subtly influenced by their parents. To develop the good habit of children going to bed early and getting up early, in the end, the guidance of parents is the key.
If you want your child to sleep well, parents may wish to pay attention to these 6 points!
1. The lunch break should not be too long
Children who sleep too long during the day mostly do not sleep well at night. Although there are many benefits to the lunch break, the effect of sleeping for a long time is counterproductive.
If the child sleeps too much during the day, parents can consciously wake up the child, or tease him to play for a while, and overcome the "black and white upside down" by adjusting.
In general, preschool children can sleep for 1-2 hours at noon, and do not let children sleep for 3-4 hours or even longer.
2. Do not do intense exercise before going to bed
Adult children exercise in moderation, which is beneficial to the child's development and health, but the time and degree of exercise should be grasped.
During the day, you can properly carry out outdoor sports such as running and playing football, avoid strenuous exercise after dinner, and it is not suitable for exciting games, which may cause the child's brain to be overexcited, so that he cannot go to bed early.
3. Create a strong sleeping atmosphere
If your child sleeps well, the sleeping environment is the key.
At night, it is best not to let children touch tv, computer, mobile phone and other fluorescent screens at home, because these are particularly easy to make children addicted and do not want to go to sleep.
You can dim the lights, turn off the TV, and adults don't chat anymore, creating a quiet and peaceful bedtime environment for children.
It is best to prepare a fixed bedtime ceremony for them to develop habits, such as reading books together, listening to stories, and letting the child sleep contentedly in a quiet environment.
4. Make a schedule with your child
Don't expect the child to know how to sleep when he is tired of playing, you know, in the process of the child's playing tiredness, it is at the cost of consuming all the child's energy, which is very bad for the child's body.
Parents can make a schedule with their children, remembering to discuss the plan with their children, rather than asking them what time to sleep, which can often be counterproductive.
After the appointment of the time, usually when the time comes, you must go to sleep. For example, if you agree to go to bed at 9 o'clock, then at 8:30, you must try to let the child calm down and prepare for bedtime.
5. Parents should lead by example
The formation of children's good habits, in the final analysis, the guidance of parents is the key.
You procrastinate at night, chase the drama and stay up late, and you have not arranged the child, and the child naturally does not sleep.
If you wash your child on time, tell bedtime stories, and turn off the lights to sleep, your child will also be on time. Therefore, first reflect on whether you have paid attention to this problem and done it seriously.
However, many parents are forced to go to bed late, but this does not mean that their children will go to bed late.
If the schedule is agreed, when the time comes, parents can first put down the matter at hand, accompany the child to sleep first, wait for him to fall asleep, and then get up to do things. Doing so will not disrupt your child's routine.
The rules of work and rest must be observed, not for children, but also for parents themselves.
6. Adjust the child's sleep, parents do not be anxious
Parents should also not be too anxious about their children's sleep problems every day, and occasionally sleep late do not have to be too nervous.
Some children who have developed the habit of sleeping late cannot adjust in a short period of time, and at this time, they cannot be impatient, and they must give their children some time to make adjustments.
A step-by-step approach can be used, such as going to bed at 10:30 p.m. this week and changing to 10 p.m. the following week.
