The full moon might make us feel more awake or even a little grumpy. Like when you're tired but your room is bright, the full moon shines so much that it can mess up our sleep. Some people say they get more dreams or feel more energetic on full moons. Scientists think this might be because our bodies are like clocks that react to light and darkness.
Examples
- A child who usually sleeps through the night starts waking up during a full moon.
- An adult feels more tired than usual on the day after a full moon.
