Big question

为什么我们要睡觉?

Wèishénme wǒmen yào shuìjiào?

Why do we sleep?

我们睡觉,是因为身体和大脑都需要休息,准备迎接新的一天。

Wǒmen shuìjiào, shì yīnwèi shēntǐ hé dànǎo dōu xūyào xiūxi, zhǔnbèi yíngjiē xīn de yì tiān.

我们想了很多、玩了很多,也长大了一点点,身体就会累。睡觉会帮助我们恢复力气,安安静静地准备明天再醒来。

Wǒmen xiǎng le hěn duō, wán le hěn duō, yě zhǎngdà le yìdiǎndiǎn, shēntǐ jiù huì lèi. Shuìjiào huì bāngzhù wǒmen huīfù lìqi, ānānjìngjìng de zhǔnbèi míngtiān zài xǐnglái.

你觉得今晚的梦会穿什么颜色的衣服呢?

Nǐ juéde jīnwǎn de mèng huì chuān shénme yánsè de yīfu ne?

We sleep so our bodies and brains can rest and get ready for a new day.

After a long day of thinking, playing, and growing, our bodies get tired. Sleep helps us feel stronger, calmer, and ready to wake up again.

What do you think your dreams might wear tonight?
