Video games and social media are keeping school kids up at night, according to a new survey from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM).
Restrict screen time before bed. Encourage your child to disconnect from all electronic devices 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime, AASM recommends. This will help them wind down for the night.
Keep electronics in another room, not the bedroom, to avoid temptation. Use an alarm clock instead of a phone for waking up in the morning. Establish and follow a relaxing nighttime routine, which might include journaling, reading or taking a warm bath or shower.Children between 6 and 12 years of age should sleep nine to 12 hours each night.Use the AASM's Online Bedtime Calculator to help you select an appropriate bedtime for your child or teen.Copyright © 2022 HealthDay.
