The main cause of night sweats in children is an inability to properly regulate body temperature and a greater proportion of sweat glands compared to body size. As children reach deeper stages of sleep, their body temperature rises. To help your child sleep more comfortably, we recommend setting the room temperature to 68 - 72℉ (20 - 22℃) and dressing them in breathable materials like cotton or bamboo. (Avoid polyester!) Consider replacing any thick or plush blankets with a lightweight muslin or jersey knit blanket.
