Das Schlafbuch für die ganze Familie

Sleep is very important throughout human development for our well-being. This comprehensive sleep book for all age groups, from newborns to teenagers and parents, answers all the essential questions about sleep: When can and should children sleep in their own bed? What type of sleep support is suitable for babies, and which for toddlers? Do all children need a nap? How does sleep behavior change in later years up to puberty, and what role do social media play in this?

Educator and family consultant Susanne Mierau not only knows how babies and children can sleep well. Based on scientific findings, she also describes the current state of adult sleep, how parents can compensate for nighttime sleep deficits, remain sensitive, and balance the sleep needs of everyone involved. She presents various sleep settings and environments and critically examines societal aspects such as the expectations placed on mothers, who often get the least sleep during the baby phase. Numerous ideas and tips, such as bedtime rituals for both young and old, offer solutions.
