Some people remember dreams because their brains wake up more during sleep. Imagine you're playing a game in your head, and suddenly the lights flicker, that's like waking up inside your dream! When you wake up more often during the night, you’re more likely to remember what was happening in your dream world.
Examples
- A kid wakes up from a dream about flying unicorns because they stirred during the night.
- Your friend remembers a dream about winning a race, but only after they woke up twice in the middle of the night.
- You didn’t remember your dreams at all, but your brother remembered every detail because he stayed asleep longer.
