Sleep gives our brains the down time needed to process new information, and gives our bodies rest to recover and rebuild. More importantly, as we sleep, our immune systems destroy harmful free radicals (that could cause cancer and speed up the ageing process) accumulated in our bodies throughout the day. For children, sleep is especially important in their formative years. Here&#8217;s how you can ensure your kids are getting the sleep they need.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"kc-elm kc-css-1463238 kc_row\">\n<div class=\"kc-row-container  kc-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-2279964 kc_col-sm-12 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"kc-col-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-1625143 kc-title-wrap \">\n<h4 class=\"kc_title\">1.
