Why Do People Dream and What Do Dreams Really Mean?

Dreams are like the brain’s nighttime stories. When you sleep, your brain goes on an adventure with your thoughts and memories. Sometimes it makes up cool or silly things, that's a dream! These stories help your brain sort out what happened during the day. Like when you go to bed after playing a game, you might dream about winning or losing.
