Synopsis

From crankiness and the "terrible twos" to recurrent ear infections and headaches that young children often experience, to the listlesness and low academic performance of teenagers, many childhood problems can be traced to a simple but often overlooked cause: the lack of sleep. This handbook, for parents, explains how to recognize the signs of fatigue in a child, determine how much sleep a child really needs and establish a routine that satisfies a child's needs at every age and stage of development. This guide identifies key contributing factors to a child's tiredness - television; too many extra-curricular activities; a parent's schedule; and even the electric lighting in the home. It offers remedies such as extra sleep or setting a weekday and weekend bedtime schedule.
