Staying up late can be difficult, especially for children. If you sleep long enough, chances are you'll fall asleep eventually, especially if you're under the age of 10. However, this article will help ensure you stay up all night without falling asleep. Tomorrow morning you might regret staying up late, but at night it's certainly fun.
Step
Method 1 of 6: Before Starting
Step 1. Know the four parts of the night
Early Night (9-12 pm), Midnight (12-2 pm), Late Night (2-4 pm), and Early Morning (4-9 am). The temptation to sleep gets stronger as the night goes on.
Step 2. Make a plan
Before starting to stay up late, you should plan what to do. If you don't have a to-do list, sleep will be easier.
Step 3. Keep snacks and all the devices that will be used in your room
You should also take a long nap.
Have dinner as late as possible and eat as much as you can
Method 2 of 6: Early Evening (9-12 PM)
Step 1. Use electronic devices
Try playing games to keep your brain busy. Play games on electronic devices such as iPods, smartphones, iPads, or other devices. You can play with your phone, but don't forget to bring a charger.
Step 2. When using the internet, avoid boring sites
News sites, information, or anything that is educational and boring such as scientific articles will slow your brain, and make you sleepy. Choose a site that keeps your brain active and awake, for example a gaming site like Cool Math Games, Slither.io, or Agar.io.
Step 3. If you are using a computer, play a game that allows you to interact with other people, such as Primal Carnage
You can also try puzzle sites like Sporcle, Games for the Brain, Fun Trivia, BrainBashers and Triviaplaza. Puzzles make you think hard so you don't fall asleep.
Step 4. Visit Facebook
Facebook has many games for example Kingdoms of Camelot, Cityville, FarmVille and You Don't Know Jack. Family Feud is suitable to play because it keeps your brain active. If you are accompanied by friends, you can play together. If you are getting sleepy, flush your face with cold water. This method will shock your body and feel like you just woke up.
Step 5. Join social sites that match your interests
For example, if you play a certain game, join the game's online forum and discuss it with other players.
Step 6. If you don't have a computer, try playing a game on an iPod
Play games like Jurassic World, Dino Zoo, or T.rex Simulator.
If your skating time is limited by your parents, feel free to use the tips above
Step 7. Use headphones
If you have headphones, it's best to use them. Just make sure one ear is open so you can hear when your parents come. After passing the Midnight phase, your headphones may be removed.
Step 8. Turn on the television if you don't have an iPod game
Watch television shows that entertain you. Watch television shows like Bunk'd, Stuck in the Middle, Jessie, Best Friends Whenever, or children's movies like The Good Dinosaur. Don't watch documentaries and news that make you sleepy. If you want to learn, watch Ice Age Death Trap
Step 9. Play a board game like Snakes and Ladders or Monopoly
Playing against yourself is not boring. You can make your own rules that are impossible with anyone else.
Step 10. Try reading a book and listening to music using headphones
This activity won't wake your parents and if they do, just say "I couldn't sleep, so I read a book."
Method 3 of 6: Midnight (12-2 PM)
Step 1. Maybe you start to get bored at this time after doing activities for three hours in a row
This is the most pleasant time of the night. Try to keep yourself busy.
Step 2. Radio and Reading:
Turn on the reading light, but you are not allowed to turn on the room light so your parents don't find out. Make sure the books you read are interesting so you don't get bored and sleepy. Read a book like Jurassic Park or Death Trap: the Story of the La Brea Tar Pits.
Step 3. Watch a movie
Be careful, sometimes people get sleepy while watching movies. If you really want to watch, do it at this stage. Movies like The Martian, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, or Jurassic World are suitable for you to watch.
Step 4. Turn on the fan
If you don't have one, open the window and stand in front of it. Make sure the wind is pointing straight at you. This makes your hair stand on end so that the brain becomes alert and wakes up all parts of the body. Don't open the window if your parents forbid it!
Step 5. Watch the movie
Turn up the volume, and play games, build card towers, paint pictures or whatever you want!
Step 6. Radio and Console:
Turn on the radio and turn down the volume, then play a game of Cool Math. Don't turn on the sound as it will wake your parents up.
Step 7. Radio and Film:
Play a movie you've watched a few times, and turn on the radio, but you can hear it more clearly than a movie.
Step 8. Radio, Console and Movies:
Play frequently-watched movies, turn on the radio, and play portable console games.
Step 9. Don't just do one thing at a time
If you (for example) only watch television during this hour, you may fall asleep due to lack of brain activity.
Method 4 of 6: Midnight (2-4 PM)
Step 1. If your parents wake up early for work, turn off the radio, movies, and stop reading
Make sure you know when your parents wake up so everything can be turned off before your parents hear anything.
Step 2. If it looks like your parents are about to enter your room, hide the book under the pillow, and pretend to be asleep
Don't let yourself sleep! This mistake is often made. When your parents are gone, resume your entertainment.
Step 3. If your parents don't wake up early:
morning stage will put you to sleep. Open the curtains and blinds, eat in your room, and stretch while listening to the radio.
Step 4. Do some morning activities like washing your face, brushing your teeth, or even taking a shower
Step 5. Continue to stay up late
Step 6. You can also try splashing water on your face to wake up
Step 7. Go to the internet and read scientific articles, watch The Curiosity Show, paleontology videos, or chat with other people via chat boxes or forums
Since the night goes on and your parents don't wake up, video games are just the thing to keep you awake.
Method 5 of 6: Early Morning (4-8 AM)
Step 1. Refresh yourself by washing your face and brushing your teeth
Step 2. Play games on the internet while sitting in a chair or listening to low volume music
Step 3. Once the sun is high enough in the sky, take a cold shower and brush your teeth again
After that, eat a nice breakfast.
Method 6 of 6: The Next Day
Step 1. Keep yourself busy
Watching television, surfing the internet, chatting, and staying away from couches and beds are all great ways to keep yourself from getting sleepy during the day. Get out there and run! Remember, don't push yourself. If you're really tired, sleep whenever you want.
Step 2. Remove the sheets and blankets
Thus, you are not easy to sleep when you get on the bed.
Tips
- If your parents see this computer, delete your web browser history.
- If you have a new video game that you haven't played before, now is the time. You can wake up long enough and not sleep for hours.
- Compete with friends in other houses to see who can wake up the longest. If you are competitive, you will stay up late because you want to win. Keep in touch with your friends to determine the winner
- Try to be on time. Don't stay in the 'Night' stage until 1:30 because you may be tired and fall asleep in the 'Midnight' stage
- If you have pets, try bringing them into your room. You will be able to see what your pet is doing in the middle of the night! (especially the noisy ones).
- If you're brave, try taking 5 coffee beans and grind them in a coffee grinder. If you have a manual coffee pot, add 2 threadless black tea bags and pour boiling water while making the coffee.
- Play endless video games like Minecraft, The Sims, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Ewok Village, Jurassic Park, Awesome Planes, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cheese Touch, or Monopoly. Otherwise, play fun games like Dumb Ways To Die that pass the time unnoticed.
- Try faking sleeplessness, starting the week before, and then continuing for a week.
- Set up a backup activity in case you get bored or lose the motivation to stay awake. Have a book ready in case you're bored in the middle of the night. That way, you have a quiet activity if your parents are still awake.
- Energy drinks or caffeinated drinks should be taken around midnight. If you go too fast, the effect will wear off! If you drink too much, you will fall asleep.
- If you wear glasses, don't take them off! Although a bit uncomfortable, you will find it more difficult to sleep. Also, try to stand up as often as possible to stay awake.
- Try putting ice cubes under your shirt to stay awake. However, if it's cold, don't use a blanket. You will fall asleep.
Warning
- Some people will be dizzy and VERY tired the next day. Try increasing your hours of staying up gradually every night and you will get used to it the next day
- Coffee and tea should be available during staying up late.
- Make sure you don't go to school the next day because you need a lot of rest.
- One night staying up will weaken mental faculties for FOUR DAYS.
- If you stay up late and have bags under your eyes, your parents will be suspicious.
- If you stay up too long, your sleep schedule can be messy! In addition, if you stay up until 2-6 in the morning, chances are you will have trouble sleeping.
- Chances are you will starve. Don't eat too much, or you won't starve at breakfast and look fishy.
- Don't use a blanket. Better to just wear a robe.
- You can't stay up late if you have school tomorrow! You will not be active enough in school.
