Baclk to School is Here!

According to the National Sleep Foundation, 1 in every 4 fall asleep in class. Insufficient sleepers receive lower grades than their peers and sleep is essential for the storage of long-term memories. Parents are in charge of setting a good example and enforcing a consistent bedtime routine. Sleep expert, Pete Bils, provides several simple tips that parents can use to maintain a family bedtime routine:

How To Break Bad Summer-Time Sleep Habits
1. No gadgets: Minimize media-related activities like texting or games one hour prior to bedtime.
2. No homework in bed: the bed should only be for sleeping, light reading and relaxing.
3. Minimize light: Reduce the amount of light your family is exposed to the hour prior to bedtime. Also, minimize light in the bedroom while family members fall asleep. If you must use a nightlight, put it near the floor.
4. Consistency is key: Maintain a consistent bedtime routine and sleep schedule all week long, even on the weekends since altering sleep schedules create jet-lag-like symptoms. Remember that sleep is not negotiable.
5. Quality bedding: Invest in a quality mattress and accessories to keep your family comfortable.

Parents should not forget about themselves either! Working parents or stay at home parents who are sleep deprived report daytime drowsiness, which can lead to poor concentration, absenteeism, accidents, errors, injuries, and fatalities.

Enjoy the above tips!
