What Sleep Does

How much should we sleep in 24 hours? 🛏️ Each square is one hour. Tap the hours to split the day into sleep and awake time. When you reach the green spot, you’ve got the right amount. 🕘 Next, count backward: if you wake up at 7 a.m., what time should you go to bed? Go to bed an hour later and you lose exactly one hour of sleep—tap to check it out. 😴 Finally, watch sleep debt pile up. If you miss just 3 hours a day, how much builds up after several days? Find the day it passes half a day, then a whole day. It happens sooner than you think. This app was made with code too · Remix it and add your family’s wake-up time!.

It uses three activities to compare recommended sleep for primary-school children, count backward from a 7 a.m. wake-up time to find bedtime, and see how three missing hours per day accumulate as sleep debt. Tap hour, bedtime, or day choices to view visual explanations and progress through guided challenges.
