∙ 13y agoNewborns will sleep 20 hours a day or more, toddlers age 1 to 3 need about 12 hours of sleep per 24 hours, more when they are in a growth spurt.
Young school age kids ages 5 to 12 need 8 to 10 hours, but at that age it really depends on the child.
Teenagers need 8 to 10 or more hours of sleep daily, with most boys needing more sleep than girls at this age.
Young adults, on average need about 8 hours of sleep but are often able to function well for a time on less.
Older folks generally need far less sleep than the rest of the population, some as little as 6 hours per 24.
Growth and healing take place during the sleep cycle, so anyone recovering from surgery, illness, an injury or having a rapid growth spurt should be encouraged to sleep as much as possible.
