How long does a nine year old have to sleep?

According to the National Sleep Foundation, a nine-year-old child needs 10-11 hours of sleep per night.

It's important to note that this is just a guideline, and individual children may have slightly different needs. Factors like activity level, health, and genetics can all play a role in how much sleep a child requires.

If you're concerned about your child's sleep habits, it's always best to talk to their pediatrician.
