Older children and teens have a lot to keep them wide awake past their bedtime. This may include homework, projects, mobile phones, TV, game consoles and internet surfing.
Research studies regarding sleep say that children need at least eight hours of sleep per day. In order to achieve this goal, the children's bedroom furniture should only be associated with sleep.
Sleep is very important in children. The production of growth hormones reaches peak during sleep.
While bones and muscles develop, the brain is developing as well.
Thus, in order not to distract the children from sleeping, their bedroom furniture should only be equipped with the basics.
These should only include the children's bed, nightstands, vanity table and dressers.
Avoid putting gaming console, TV or personal computer inside your children's bedroom. These pieces are better placed in other parts of the house.
Having these items inside their bedroom will keep them awake most of the night.
The children's bedroom should create a relaxing ambiance that would lure the children to sleep.
The bed should be comfortable and inviting. Nightstands have to be included to hold basic essentials like glass of water, lamp shade and alarm clocks for your children's comfort.
A vanity table and dresser make for convenient dressing up and changing of clothes inside the bedroom.
Study tables and chairs may be placed so children can do their homework but no electronics equipment should be installed so as not to distract the children.
Sleep is essential and by creating a good relaxation and sleeping space, your children will be able to get enough sleep, grow healthy and stay alert the next day in school.
