Sleeping hours

How many hours are you meant to sleep for?

Have you been waking up in the middle of the night? Have you been waking up in an angry mood? Have you been cranky in the morning this week? It's all because of how much hours you’ve been sleeping for.

Have you ever wondered how much hours you meant to be sleeping for? Well 1 week newborn babies are meant to sleep for 8 hours and 30 minutes at night. Ages 2 and 3 are meant to be getting 11 hours and 30 minutes. Children are meant to be getting 10-11 hours sleep. Teenagers are meant to be getting 8 hours and 30 minutes.

Have you been sleeping most of the time in the car? Have you been sleepy in the daytime? Do you need someone to wake you up early every morning? If you have been doing one or all of these things then you haven’t been having enough sleep as you should be having.

All children should sleep for hours and hours because its important to for their behaviour and attitude especially their well being.

So if you haven’t been getting enough sleep its time you should. Get an alarm and wake up yourself. Set your alarm for the amount of hours you are meant to sleep for. This may need you to change you bedtimes for more hours of sleep. Please make sure to have enough sleep and always smile!
