We remember dreams more than others because some people are dream detectives, and others just pass by.
Imagine your brain is like a castle at night. When you sleep, the castle gates open, and dream creatures come in to play. Some people wake up right when the last creature waves goodbye, so they remember everything that happened. But other people wake up when the first creature enters, and they don’t know what just happened.
It’s like watching a magic show, if you see the whole trick, you remember it. If you blink at the wrong moment, you might not get it at all.
Sometimes, the dream detective is also a memory wizard. They have special powers that help them keep the dream story in their mind even after they wake up.
So, some people are like dream detectives, and others are just sleepy wanderers, that’s why we remember dreams more than others!
