Pediatricians recommend between 8 and 10 hours of sleep for optimal performance in school. Does your child get enough sleep? If not, here are some tips that might help you:

Stop all physical activities 1-2 hours before bedtime. Have your son or daughter read a book, listen to music or watch an educational television program when bedtime nears.
Limit the consumption of caffeine and sugar. Do not allow your child to have caffeinated beverages or sugary foods after 3 p. m.
Do not allow your child to deviate from schedules on weekends. Try to get her to bed within 1 to 2 hours of her weekday bedtime even on the weekends.
