Every Child Deserves a Good Night’s Sleep

Sleep is a vital aspect of any child's life. Sadly, many children around the Lake of the Ozarks don't get a good nights sleep. A number of kids don't even have their own bed to sleep on - they either share a bed or sleep on the floor. This is no way to get a good night's sleep! Slumberland Furniture in Osage Beach sees a need and has partnered with Scott's Concrete, along with the Bagnell Dam Board of Realtors and 93.5 Rocks the Lake to help meet that need. We're helping to provide at least 70 mattresses to local children.


Reasons Kids Deserve a Good Night's Sleep:

Promote Growth

Kids grow when they sleep. Getting the right amount of sleep can help a child grow as they should. Being short on sleep can put a strain on the body, making it difficult for the body to perform tasks as it should - like growing.

Helps with Attention Span

Getting enough sleep can help children have a longer attention span. This is vital, especially in a learning setting like school. It's important that a child can pay attention long enough to learn a lesson and be able to put it to use.

Healthy Heart

The body does a lot of work while a child is sleeping. While sleeping, a child's heart helps to pump blood throughout the entire body. A healthy heart is very important, even at a young age. Proper sleep can help keep a child's heart working as it should and circulating what it should when it should.

Boost Immune System

When a child sleeps, their body performs a number of healing tasks. As the body heals, it can help keep a kid healthy. Getting enough sleep can help keep a child's immune system up - which is very important, especially during the cold season of winter!

Better Mood

A child that gets adequate sleep is typically in a better mood than a sleep-deprived kid. A mood can have a big impact on a little person. A good mood can make it easier to learn and perform daily tasks. It can also help a child get along better with others - whether it's other kids or adults. Overall, a child in a good mood can help them live a better life.
