Golden Key 1: Sleep

As our Count 5! Public Awareness Campaign shifts into high gear, we’re reminding parents and caregivers across Florence County that adequate sleep is one of the most valuable gifts we can give our young children. Sleep is powerful! It has the power to help children stay healthy and it reduces their risk of injury. Sleep helps children grow. It boosts their attention spans, too, which allows them to learn more and become school ready! Remind your friends with young children that children under the age of five need at least 10 hours of sleep each night. Help us spread the word about Count 5! Post it on your social media pages, so that we can engage our community and build a better, brighter Florence!
