Tuấn Đạt (Theo Health) |

Afternoon naps play an important role in the development of young children, helping to improve their health and spirit.

According to some studies, napping will help children restore energy, increase concentration and support brain development. Therefore, maintain napping so that children can develop comprehensively.

Set a fixed nap time

Setting a fixed nap time will help children gradually form the habit of adapting to their daily biological rhythm. Parents should choose a time frame that suits their children's needs and schedules and maintain it regularly to help children easily have a good nap.

To create a habit of napping, parents should teach their children to recognize that it is time to go to bed and prepare for sleep. This is also a way to help children understand that it is time to rest and create a sense of security for them.

Create a comfortable sleeping space

Space often directly affects the quality of children's sleep. Therefore, parents should note that they should set up their children's bedroom to be quiet, with soft lighting and a temperature suitable for the weather. Make sure there is no noise or the room is too bright to help children fall asleep easily.

In addition, you can use curtains to reduce light, adjust the room temperature and dress your child in cool clothes. At the same time, a comfortable bed with soft, warm blankets and pillows also contributes to creating an ideal sleeping space for your child to take a nap.

Limit stimulating activities

Before naptime, avoid engaging in stimulating activities such as playing video games or strenuous exercise. These activities can increase arousal levels, making it difficult for children to fall asleep.

Instead, encouraging children to draw, read books... will help them relax mentally and prepare for a nap more easily.
