How many hours of sleep should a preteen get?

Preteens (ages 9-12) need 9-12 hours of sleep per night.

It's important to note that this is a range, and individual needs can vary. Factors like age, activity level, and health can affect how much sleep a child needs.

Here are some signs your preteen may not be getting enough sleep:

* Difficulty waking up in the morning

* Falling asleep in class or during other activities

* Feeling tired or sluggish during the day

* Irritability or mood swings

* Difficulty concentrating

* Headaches or stomachaches

If you notice any of these signs, talk to your child's doctor to make sure they are getting enough sleep.
