## Resource

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids Podcast, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender explore why sleep is essential for kids as families transition back to school. They discuss why tired brains struggle with attention and self control, and how parents can gradually rebuild healthy sleep rhythms without turning bedtime into a battle. Parents will be encouraged to see rest not simply as a health habit, but as an important part of helping children grow physically, emotionally, academically, and spiritually.
