 A good night's sleep is crucial for children's development. Quality sleep supports a wide range of important functions, including cognitive performance, brain development, emotional wellbeing, immune function, healthy eating habits and creativity. It also plays a key role in concentration, decision-making and problem-solving skills. (15 okt 2026, explaining the importance of quality sleep for a child's overall development and cognitive functions.) |
| In the week leading up to the clocks going back, parents and carers can help children adjust by gradually shifting bedtime later. (12 okt 2026, giving advice on how to manage children's sleep schedules before the clocks change.) |
| Try putting children to bed 10 minutes later than usual each day, until they are falling asleep around an hour later than their normal bedtime. (12 okt 2026, explaining the specific method for shifting a child's bedtime.) |
| As the seasons change, so do children's sleep patterns. During the winter months, darker mornings and shorter daylight hours, combined with increased exposure to artificial light in the evenings, can disrupt the natural light signals that help regulate melatonin, the hormone responsible for sleep. (12 okt 2026, discussing how seasonal changes and light affect children's sleep hormones.) |
| This can affect the timing and quality of children's sleep, making it more difficult for them to settle at bedtime. Winter also tends to bring more coughs, colds and other illnesses, which can temporarily disrupt sleep. (12 okt 2026, explaining the impact of winter conditions and illness on sleep quality.) |
| On the other hand, the lighter evenings of spring and summer can make it harder for some children to settle at their usual bedtime. So, there is not necessarily one season that is better for children's sleep, as each brings its own challenges. (12 okt 2026, comparing the sleep challenges of different seasons.) |
| 'Cheese causes nightmares' is a longstanding myth, and there is little evidence to support it. Cheese contains tryptophan, an amino acid that helps the body produce melatonin, which plays an important role in regulating sleep. (9 okt 2026, clarifying whether eating cheese before bed genuinely causes vivid dreams or nightmares.) |
| If a child is hungry before bed, a small piece of cheese with an oat cracker can make a simple bedtime snack that helps keep them satisfied through the night. (9 okt 2026, providing advice on suitable bedtime snacks for children as part of a sleep guide.) |
| Keeping the bedroom cool - around 16-20°C and as dark as possible is the most ideal. If a child needs a night light for reassurance, opt for a very dim red light. It's also a good idea to remove or cover unnecessary lights from electronic devices. (9 okt 2026, giving advice on the ideal bedroom environment for children's sleep.) |
| White noise can be helpful for babies and younger children, particularly if there are other noises around the house that might disturb them. Bedding also plays a role in temperature regulation, so it's worth choosing bedding that suits both the room temperature and the season. (9 okt 2026, discussing the benefits of white noise and the importance of temperature regulation in bedding.) |
| Breathable fabrics, such as cotton, are best for comfort and temperature regulation. Bedding and pyjamas should feel comfortable and cosy but not make a child too hot. For babies, always follow sleep guidance and use appropriate bedding or a correctly fitted baby sleep bag rather than loose or bulky bedding. (9 okt 2026, advising on the best fabrics and safety guidelines for children's sleepwear and bedding.) |
