Nightmares and night terrors can be equally frightening for both child
and parent, especially when they start happening frequently.
Nightmares occur during the REM (rapid eye movement) phase of sleep.
They might vary in length, but the child will usually remember what the
nightmare was about. Night terrors, on the other hand, happen about an
hour or two after the child has gone to sleep, and can last anywhere
from a few moments to an hour. They happen during the non-REM part of
sleep, and even though his eyes are wide open, the child is asleep the
entire time. When he awakens though, he’ll have no memory of it.
