Question

How many hours should a seven year old girl sleep per night?

Answer 1

Ten hours should be good for a little girl of seven. She should go to bed fairly early (8-9ish) and wake up decently early as well (8 at the very latest).

Answer 2

id say 8-11

Answer 3

9 to 11 hours

Answer 4

As much sleep as possible thats what it is like for all people but everyone knows this is not possible at all most kids need a minimum of 12 hours of sleep at that age but she can always get more

Answer 5

i believe at age 12 they need 10 to 12 hours total sleep for the day. The older they get the less sleep they need. ;D

Answer 6

Pediatricians would recommend about 10 hours of sleep for your daughter.  But it really depends on her.  Does she function fine with less than 10?  How does she do with more?  My 4 yr old gets about 11 or so and functions much better the more sleep she gets.

I really depends on the individual child.  One thing to watch out for is how they behave late in the afternoon....they've been up for a long time, probably hungry as well.  If she's often cranky around this time an earlier bedtime would probably help.
