A study involving 142 elementary school students performed to compare the number of hours of sleep with the performance of academic skills. When the children sleep, less than nine hours usually find difficulty in learning at school the next day.

Children aged six and seven years who sleep less tend to be difficult to communicate and do math. Spelling skills, grammar used, as well as their understanding are disrupted. Memory and ability to learn is affected.

The study also found that more and more children are allowed to use computers and televisions in their bedrooms. In fact, this facility triggers a lack of sleep. “Currently there is great concern about the habits of children watching television, playing computer games or video at night that keeps them from sleeping at the same time every night,” said Ramon Cladellas from the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

“Most children sleep time less than recommended, but it is important for their intellectual ability. In fact, this cannot be repaired,” said Cladellas.

Professor Russell Foster, head of neuroscience at the University of Oxford said, “It is clear that sleep starting at 21.00 up from 09.00 to optimize cognitive performance of children.” Bad habit of sleeping late at night affect the child’s performance in everyday tasks, and make them difficult to find a solution of the problem is more complex.

Well, if the kids need time to sleep for 9-11 hours, adults need only 6.5 to 8.5 hours.
