Imagine you're playing with building blocks. Some kids see the blocks in bright colors, while others only see them in black and white. That’s like how some people dream in color and others don’t.
Why does this happen? Scientists think it has to do with how your brain processes information during sleep. People who remember their dreams more often tend to dream in color. But if you're not used to remembering your dreams, they might seem black and white instead.
Examples
- A child sees a rainbow in their dream, while another only sees grey clouds.
- One person dreams about flying with colorful birds, while the other feels like they are just floating.
