| dc.description.abstract | Sleep is critical for physical growth and healthy child development. Traditionally, interventions targeting sleep improvement in children have focused on the parents. This scoping review aimed to identify and summarize the available evidence on child-focused interventions designed to promote healthy sleep habits among children aged 3–12 in healthcare settings. The review was conducted in accordance with JBI guidelines. A comprehensive search strategy was employed, encompassing databases such as PubMed, CINAHL, Psychology & Behavioral Sciences Collection, Education Source, Scopus, Web of Science, the Public Health Database, and Portugal’s Open Access Scientific Repository. Following identification and screening, 15 articles were included. Three types of interventions were identified: isolated, combined, and structured programs. Overall, the studies suggest that, while sleep-related knowledge tends to improve, achieving sustained, long-term behavioral change remains challenging in this age group. Active child participation appears essential for promoting lasting results and developing more tailored, child-friendly interventions. | eng |
