The isolation of Albanian families during the Covid 19 pandemic caused children to be deprived of going out into nature or playgrounds.<\/p>\n

Exactly this situation affected the reduction of the pace of physical activity, while increasing the passive or sleeping hours at children.<\/p>\n

A recent study conducted by the World Health Organization among children in Europe showed that 15% of children increased their sleeping hours during the weekdays, while at the weekend this figure reached 17%.<\/p>\n

Children in Albania followed almost the same trend.<\/p>\n

The data collected by the experts of the Public Institute indicate that 10.1% of children increased their sleeping hours during the weekdays, in the absence of physical activity, while on weekends, even in Albania, the figure increases, making 14.5% of children increased the hours they spent sleeping.<\/p>\n

But there were also those children who, during the Covid 19 pandemic, reduced their sleeping hours compared to the period before the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Put in numbers, 9% of children had reduced hours of sleep during weekdays and 6.5% slept less on weekends.<\/p>\n

World health experts say that only 75% of children continued their sleep routine without being affected by the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Children in San Marino were seen to have the greatest increase in sleep hours in the pandemic period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
