Why Nasal Breathing Is Crucial for Children’s Sleep

Did you know that something as simple as how your child breathes while they sleep can affect their brain, their mood, and even their behavior?

Nasal breathing (breathing through the nose, not the mouth) is one of the most important habits your child can develop for better sleep and better health.[1]

The Breathing Cure for Better Sleep is an effective, practical guide that helps parents understand what’s happening during sleep, and how to fix it using gentle, proven breathing techniques.

Why Breathing Through the Nose Matters

The nose isn’t just for smelling—it's a powerful filter, humidifier, and air-flow controller that protects the lungs and supports healthy sleep. Mouth breathing, on the other hand, can disrupt all of that.

Nasal breathing encourages optimal tongue and jaw position, to keep your child’s airway open and stabilized, making breathing easier. When your child breathes through their nose, they:

• Get more oxygen into the brain and body
• Sleep more deeply and wake up feeling refreshed
• Avoid snoring, tossing, and turning
• Strengthen their immune system
• Support brain development and emotional regulation

But when they breathe through their mouth, especially at night, it can cause their tongue and jaw to fall back, encroaching on the airway. Mouth breathing can lead to problems like:[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

• Restless sleep or frequent waking
• Snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome and sleep apnea
• Daytime fatigue and crankiness
• Trouble concentrating at school
• Symptoms that look like ADHD or behavior issues

Is Your Child Mouth Breathing?

Here are some common signs to look for:

• Sleeping with their mouth open
• Snoring or noisy breathing at night
• Waking up tired or grumpy
• Dry mouth or bad breath in the morning
• Frequent stuffy nose or blocked sinuses
• Trouble focusing or managing emotions during the day

If these sound familiar, your child may not be getting the deep, restorative sleep they need.
