While preschoolers should get up to 13 hours of sleep, tweens need between nine and 12 hours, and teenagers do best with eight to 10 hours of shut-eye.<\/p>\n<p>When children don\u2019t get enough sleep, they can have difficulty paying attention in class, experience daytime sleepiness, have lower energy levels and become irritable.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Sleep may matter more than screen time or diet for adolescents&#8217; grades, study finds <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Set an earlier bedtime<\/h2>\n<p>Early bedtimes can slip through the cracks over the summer as kids stay up for sleepovers, movie marathons and long plane flights. To get back on track, experts recommend setting earlier bedtimes a week or two before the first day of school or gradually going to bed 15 to 30 minutes earlier each night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf your child\u2019s sleep schedule needs to be shifted, that shift should be slow,\u201d Brian Chen, a doctor at the Cleveland Clinic, recommends. \u201cMaking a sudden change can leave kids sleep-deprived and groggy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Children should not be served a heavy meal before bed and should avoid TV or screen time for two hours before sleep. Instead, they can engage in relaxing activities, such as showering or reading a story. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou&#8217;re trying to take the cognitive load off your mind,\u201d said Nitun Verma, a spokesperson for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, told the Associated Press. \u201cIt would be like if you&#8217;re driving, you&#8217;re slowly letting go of the gas pedal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Parents can adjust their back-to-school plans based on what works best for their child. <\/p>\n<p>In the morning, soaking in some daylight by sitting near a window or going outside can help train the brain to power up, Verma said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Hot nights are stealing your sleep and affecting your health. Here\u2019s how<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Squash back-to-school sleep anxiety<\/h2>\n<p>Sleep quality matters just as much as duration. First-day jitters can make it hard to fall asleep no matter how early the bedtime.<\/p>\n<p>Dixon says parents can talk to their kids to find out what is making them anxious. Is it the first day at a new school? Is it a fear of making new friends? They can then try a test run of stressful activities before school starts to make those tasks feel less scary \u2014 for example, by visiting the school or meeting classmates at an open house.<\/p>\n<p>The weeks leading up to school can be jam-packed and it&#8217;s not always possible to prep a routine in advance. But kids will adjust eventually, so sleep experts say parents should do what they can. After all, their kids aren&#8217;t the only ones adjusting to a new routine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always say, &#8216;Take a deep breath, it&#8217;ll be okay,&#8217;\u201d Dixon said. \u201cAnd just start

It makes it easier to fall asleep, stay asleep and wake up feeling rested. For students, it is key to stay focused and attentive in class.\u00a0Before the school season starts again, experts recommend easing kids back into a routine.\u00a0\u201cWe don&#8217;t say \u2018 get good sleep \u2019 just because,\u201d said Gabrina Dixon, a paediatrician at Children&#8217;s National Hospital in the United States. \u201cIt really helps kids learn and it helps them function throughout the day.\u201dThe amount of sleep kids need changes as they age. While preschoolers should get up to 13 hours of sleep, tweens need between nine and 12 hours, and teenagers do best with eight to 10 hours of shut-eye.When children don\u2019t get enough sleep, they can have difficulty paying attention in class, experience daytime sleepiness, have lower energy levels and become irritable.Set an earlier bedtimeEarly bedtimes can slip through the cracks over the summer as kids stay up for sleepovers, movie marathons and long plane flights. To get back on track, experts recommend setting earlier bedtimes a week or two before the first day of school or gradually going to bed 15 to 30 minutes earlier each night.\u201cIf your child\u2019s sleep schedule needs to be shifted, that shift should be slow,\u201d Brian Chen, a doctor at the Cleveland Clinic, recommends. \u201cMaking a sudden change can leave kids sleep-deprived and groggy.\u201dChildren should not be served a heavy meal before bed and should avoid TV or screen time for two hours before sleep. Instead, they can engage in relaxing activities, such as showering or reading a story.\u00a0\u201cYou&#8217;re trying to take the cognitive load off your mind,\u201d said Nitun Verma, a spokesperson for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, told the Associated Press. \u201cIt would be like if you&#8217;re driving, you&#8217;re slowly letting go of the gas pedal.\u201dParents can adjust their back-to-school plans based on what works best for their child.\u00a0In the morning, soaking in some daylight by sitting near a window or going outside can help train the brain to power up, Verma said.Squash back-to-school sleep anxietySleep quality matters just as much as duration. First-day jitters can make it hard to fall asleep no matter how early the bedtime.Dixon says parents can talk to their kids to find out what is making them anxious. Is it the first day at a new school? Is it a fear of making new friends? They can then try a test run of stressful activities before school starts to make those tasks feel less scary \u2014 for example, by visiting the school or meeting classmates at an open house.The weeks leading up to school can be jam-packed and it&#8217;s not always possible to prep a routine in advance. But kids will adjust eventually, so sleep experts say parents should do what they can. After all, their kids aren&#8217;t the only ones adjusting to a new routine.\u201cI always say, &#8216;Take a deep breath, it&#8217;ll be okay,&#8217;\u201d Dixon said. \u201cAnd just start that schedule.\u201d<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/health\/2026\/08\/26\/back-to-school-reset-how-to-fix-kids-summer-sleep-schedule&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/88\/91\/61\/1200x675_cmsv2_359fd1ec-82cf-5f1c-8aea-444f5ce78e3b-9889161.jpg&#8221;] Culture news &#8216;Unique and irreplaceable&#8217;: Dolly Parton tributes from public figures and celebrities No Comment More than 1,000 volunteers pull historic castle back to its original site in Japan Indonesia Fire haze threatens health of millions in Indonesia, ministry warns Haiti More than 50 kidnapped as violent gang attack in Haiti leaves [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2111877","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2111877","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2111877"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2111877\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2111877"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2111877"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2111877"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
