👶🏼Physical and Cognitive Growth
Naps play a vital role in supporting babies’ physical and cognitive growth. During sleep, their bodies release growth hormones that aid in cell regeneration and brain development. Naps provide the necessary downtime for the brain to process information, consolidate learning, and form new neural connections, which contributes to their cognitive development. Fascinating!
🧠Memory Consolidation
Napping plays a crucial role in memory consolidation, allowing infants to process and retain information they’ve learned. Studies have shown that infants who nap after learning new skills or information are more likely to retain and recall that knowledge. Naps actually contribute to the formation of long-term memories for them, supporting their future learning abilities.
By prioritising your baby’s daytime sleep and routine, you can encourage healthy sleep habits and support your little one’s development. If you need help with this, grab one of our sleep programmes which all contain daytime routines with exact guidance on nap timings, feed timings, meal timings, play and bedtime routine.
