Brief Summary

This study was planned to determine the effect of the "Little Yogis Doing Yoga" Program, which will be created within the scope of the research, on getting children aged 5-6 years old to sleep habits. This study was planned in a pretest, posttest design, follow-up, randomized controlled study. The sample of the study will consist of 36 children (18 children in the intervention group, 18 children in the control group) in the 5-6 age group in Antalya between 15 March and 15 June 2023. The "Little Yogis Doing Yoga" Program, which was created within the scope of the research, will be applied to the children in the intervention group in two groups, two days a week, for 4 weeks, 30 minutes each, by the researcher who received child yoga specialization training. Data will be collected with Child and Family Information Form and Child Sleep Habits Questionnaire-CSHQ). CSHQ, T0-Pretest (Before the Program "Little Yogis Doing Yoga"), T1-Interim follow-up (after the program ends) and T2-Posttest (1 month after the program is completed) will be filled by the parents. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 24.0 package program will be used in the analysis of the data.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ)

  To gain children the ability to sleep habits. The Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ)- Abbreviated Form developed by Owens et al. consists of 33 items in total. In the scale, bedtime resistance (1,3,4,5,6,8 items), delay in falling asleep (2nd item), sleep duration (9,10,11 items), sleep anxiety (5,7,8, 21st items), night awakenings (items 16,24,25), parasomnias (12,13,14,15,17,22,23), disruption of breathing during sleep (items 18,19,20), day Eight subscales were defined as sleepiness (items 26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33). A total of 41 points is considered the cutoff point, and values above this are considered 'clinically significant'.

  CSHQ score will evaluate at baseline
