Recently, parents have had headaches because of the problem of their children sleeping late.

Some parents have a headache to ask in the background: What scientific method can make children sleep on time?

There are reports that since 2006, the sleep time of preschoolers in China is gradually decreasing. The average number of children aged 5 to 6 was 11.29 hours; a survey of 1632 preschoolers in 10 cities across the country showed that the average sleep time of the respondents was 9.57 hours. School-age children's sleep time is even more worrying.

The helplessness of parents has become an unsolvable problem, and going to bed late and getting up early has led children's living habits into a vicious circle.

Parents leave work late, children have a heavy burden after class, and there are too many entertainment temptations, which has become an important reason for children to sleep late.

Now the amount of homework in each subject is piled up, it is very late, parents check the homework for the child, persuade the child to go to bed quickly, but the child's mouth is vibrant:

● I'm not sleepy yet! I want to play for a while!

● I just finished my homework and let me sleep, I don't even have a little entertainment time, am I a learning machine?

● Mom, how about I watch another episode of the cartoon?

Many children sit and write their homework, dozing off on the way, yawning for days, but as soon as they finish writing, the whole person is energetic, not sleepy or tired, and energetic enough to seem to be able to play another ball.

Trapped as a dog when writing homework, spirited as a night owl after writing homework.

This is for sure, because the child consumes the drowsiness when writing homework, and after writing the homework, the spirit is relaxed, and he is awake immediately, so in the end, the child sleeps more and more late, and the parents say that it does not work, so the child's biological clock becomes later and later, and the parents are naturally accustomed to it.

Often see many parents more than 11 o'clock, still posting about the child's dynamics, you ask her why she does not sleep, she said that my children are sleeping at this point, it's okay, get used to it!

Is the child really used to going to bed late?

Let's first look at the scientific sleep time:

According to the scientific schedule of work and rest, according to the time of the child's daily schooling, the child who sleeps late will never have enough sleep.

And it is by no means the so-called child energy is good, less sleep will be nothing, because human organs are the same, the same follow the same law, do not sleep at the right time to let the organs get rest, then it will definitely have an impact on the child, the most obvious of which is: immunity decline, emotional instability, easy to be irritable, affect the secretion of auxin is not long, memory is reduced, attention is not concentrated...

So how to get the child to go to bed early is the anxiety and top priority of most parents.

First of all, we must understand what causes children to go to bed late, and the biggest reason I believe is that writing homework is too much of a waste of time.

If this is the case, parents need to assist their children in time modularization:

After-school time is modular, parents and children can do it in their hearts

Although the objective conditions (the amount of homework of the child) are difficult to change, as a parent, it is still necessary to use scientific planning and management to put the child's living habits on the right track to ensure the child's health and learning ability.

First of all, we need to sort out and analyze the child's evening time as a whole.

From after school to before going to bed, children's time can be divided into three modules:

Study time, including time after class and homework.

Life time, including time to finish meals and wash up before going to bed.

Entertainment time, including playtime and exercise time.

These three modules basically contain the child's regular activities at night, with this module classification, parents can break the time classification of each module, adjust and control according to the hard and soft time, as far as possible to make the child enter the sleep link on time.

Module 1: Learning Time Module

The focus of module time control: flexible combination, see sewing needle.

Schedule: Focus on time modules, which should account for about 1/2 of the time after school.

Parents can flexibly combine after-school time with homework time.

Especially in the lower grades, the homework left by the teacher is mainly based on the oral homework submitted by audio and video, so you can make full use of the free time on the road to lead the children to complete the shorter and easy-to-complete after-school homework, leaving more room for the activities after returning home.

Although the fragmented time in these corners and corners seems to be small, the reduction in the total amount of homework can also reduce the time pressure after home, and the more important significance is to establish that completing homework is the first task after class for children, so as to avoid children's procrastination on learning.

Module 2: Life Time Module

The focus of module time control: enjoy parent-child time, tension and relaxation.

Schedule: It is advisable to occupy about 1/4 of the time after school.

After a day of work and study, whether it is a parent or a child, there will be a relaxed feeling and a desire to relax when they arrive home, which is also a common sentiment of people.

Life time is mainly based on eating and washing up before going to bed.

This time is a rare parent-child time, in a relaxed atmosphere to chat with children about a day of life, share happy things, it is recommended that parents do not urge their children too much in this part of the time.

In this time module, let the child actively participate in the dinner preparation and cleaning activities, so that the child has a sense of responsibility and participation of family members, and also has a subtle effect on the improvement of the child's life ability.

In particular, it should be noted that parents should not use this part of the time to give serious lectures to their children, leaving their children with a relaxed family communication atmosphere.

Module 3: Entertainment Time Module

The focus of module time control: clarify the node in advance and strictly control it.

Schedule: It is advisable to occupy about 1/4 of the time after school.

For children at the primary school level, daily indoor and outdoor entertainment activities are difficult for children to give up, and it is also the most likely time to get out of control.

Many children procrastinate in the "last five minutes". Eventually, I went to bed later and later, and I was still tired when I woke up in the morning.

Therefore, the entertainment time module should officially clarify the end time of entertainment before the child starts playing, and seriously explain to the child that if he intends to time out, he must accept the punishment of reducing the entertainment time the next day. The key to the control of entertainment time lies in strict implementation, establishing a clear concept of time for children, and gradually cultivating children's self-restraint and control of desires.

The time module applies three principles

The above is the classification and planning of the three after-school time modules. For specific operational priorities, parents also need to pay attention to the following three principles:

Flexible use: The specific situation of each family is different, and parents can classify and adjust according to their own situation.

For example, for children in the lower grades, they can appropriately increase the entertainment time and strengthen the physical fitness cultivation through outdoor activities; while the children in the upper grades or facing further education can increase the proportion of learning time, and the entertainment time can be appropriately interspersed in the learning time as a relaxation adjustment.

Perseverance: Children have a natural sensitivity to order and law, and the arrangement and planning of time is an important topic throughout life in growth.

In childhood, parents should assist and supervise their children to carry out time management, which is a process that requires parents and children to cooperate in both directions and adhere to long-term stability, so that children can develop good time management habits and be of great benefit to their future lives.

There should be blank space: There are many uncontrollable factors in daily life, because of various emergencies, children often can not complete the plan. The long-term inability to complete the plan arrangement, on the one hand, makes the child's psychology frustrated, on the other hand, it also makes parents prone to impatience and anxiety, and at the same time, the rules themselves lose seriousness.

Therefore, it is necessary to appropriately set aside time for maneuvering, facilitate the adjustment of temporary conditions, and gradually establish a stable after-school time plan.

Let the child go to bed on time and early, first of all, parents cultivate their children's good living habits and regulate their own concepts, parents should do an example without going to bed late, do not procrastinate, assist the child to be the manager of time, rather than being passively pushed by time, then the child will never have a concept of time.

Good habits are not achieved overnight, and parents are subtly in their daily lives, which is the best way.
