Question
My child is 2 years and 5 months old. They dream at night and mimic the actions of their parents when they wake up in the morning. Why is this happening? Will it affect their sleep quality?
Answer
I’m not sure of the child’s exact age. Children’s sleep quality is affected by various factors. Deficiencies in trace elements, especially calcium deficiency, may lead to insomnia. Changes in environment, such as excessively cold or hot temperatures, can also impact sleep. Additionally, being overly excited at night can affect falling asleep. It’s recommended to keep the child calm before bedtime, which can be achieved by reading stories or listening to soft music to help them relax and fall asleep. Moreover, adults should also develop good sleeping habits.
