Music Enhances Sleep in Preschool Children.
Field, Tiffany
Early Child Development and Care, v150 p65-68 Mar 1999
Examined the effect of playing background classical guitar music at nap time on alternate days to toddlers and preschool children attending a model preschool. Specifically assessed music's effect on nap-time sleep onset. Found that children fell asleep faster on the music days than on the nonmusic days. Toddlers fell asleep faster than did the preschoolers. (Author/KB)
