Why sleep is
a superpower
Hi, Henry! π
Hi, Jack! π
Tonight we learn about
a superpower
you already have.
π€
It’s called SLEEP.
But waitβ¦
sleep is just
closing your eyes.
Right?
Nope!
Sleep is when
your body and brain
do their
secret work. π€«
When you sleepβ¦
your body rebuilds. πͺ
Cuts heal.
Muscles grow.
You get taller.
And your brainβ¦
tidies up your day.
Sorts your memories.
Files them away safely.
And!
Your brain grows
the most
when you’re asleep. π§ β¨
How much sleep?
Henry (age 7)
needs about
10β12 hours.
Jack (age 5)
needs about
11β13 hours.
Bedtime routine helps.
Same steps. Same order.
Your brain learns:
“Oh! Time to sleep.”
What are dreams?
Your brain
playing movies
while you rest. π¬
Some are silly.
Some are weird.
All are okay.
Can’t sleep?
Try slow belly breaths.
π« inβ¦ 1, 2, 3, 4.
π« outβ¦ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Five times.
Goodnight, Henry. π
Goodnight, Jack. π
Your superpower is
about to start.
