Abstract
Did you know that sleep is one of the most important parts of your day? Sleep helps your body to recover from your busy day and leaves you energized and ready for the next. While sleep is critical for people of all ages, it is perhaps the most important for teenagers. Teenagers who get enough sleep are helping their brains become stronger and better connected. This helps them to get better grades at school, to make helpful decisions at home and school, to continue to grow bigger and stronger, and to feel happier. Unfortunately, online gaming before bedtime is making it hard for some teens to get the sleep they need to enjoy all of sleep’s benefits. So, put away those consoles before bed, to give your brain the best chance of making you smarter, stronger, faster, and happier!
