On average, an adult spends a third of their life sleeping. Children snooze even more - and sometimes have correspondingly vivid dreams. The following blog tells you how children dream.
Children already dream in the womb

Doctors were able to demonstrate these REM phases as early as the 24th week of pregnancy. Dreaming is therefore already important for unborn children in order to process stimuli and sensations in the womb.
