Sleep buddy
The toy chosen as a sleep companion was introduced to the children in the experimental group and they were told that it would accompany them for 3 days during their hospitalization. Before giving the sleep companion, parents and children were informed about the sleep companion and their questions about the study were answered. Children who did not have their own sleep companion were included in the sample. The child was encouraged to sleep and spend time with the given sleep buddy and the family was also informed.
