Sleep and naps are crucial to learning, memory awareness and more! This is so true.. What do you think?

Studies have shown that short naps can improve awareness and productivity. You don’t need much; just 15 to 20 minutes can make a world of difference.
According to a study from the University of Colorado Boulder discovered that children who didn’t take their afternoon nap didn’t display much joy and interest, had a higher level of anxiety, and lower problem-solving skills compared to other children who napped regularly. The same goes for adults as well. Researchers with Berkeley found that adults who regularly take advantage of an afternoon nap have a better learning ability and improved memory function. Why is napping so essential? Because it gives your brain a reboot, where the short-term memory is cleared out and our brain becomes refreshed with new defragged space.

Your child is human too

“So often, children are punished for being human. They are not allowed to have grumpy moods, bad days, disrespectful tones, or bad attitudes. Yet, we adults have them all the time. None of us are perfect. We must stop holding our children to a higher standard of perfection than we can attain ourselves.” https://www.mother.ly/child/your-child-is-human-too

Fever Temperatures: Accuracy and Comparison

You can take a temperature using the mouth (oral), anus (rectal), armpit (axillary), or ear (tympanic). But the temperature readings vary depending on which one you use, and you need an accurate body temperature to determine if a fever is present. Medical research hasn't determined an exact correlation between oral, rectal, ear, armpit, and forehead temperature measurements. When you talk with your doctor about your temperature, be  sure to say what method was used to take the temperature. Generally, the correlation of temperature results are as follows: The average normal oral temperature is 37°C. A rectal temperature is 0.3°C to 0.6°C higher than an oral temperature. An ear (tympanic) temperature is 0.3°C to 0.6°C higher than an oral temperature. An armpit (axillary) temperature is usually 0.3°C to 0.6°C lower than an oral temperature. A forehead (temporal) scanner is usually 0.3°C to 0.6°C lower than an oral temperature. Source:  www.webmd.com
