Night terrors usually occur within two hours of the time a child goes to sleep. They are harmless and each episode will end in deep sleep. They are considered normal until age 6. Try to help your child return to normal sleep. You will not be able to awaken your child, so do not try. Turn on the lights so that your child is less confused by shadows. Make soothing comments. Hold your child if it seems to help him/her feel better. Shaking or shouting at your child may cause the child to become more upset.

http://www.parenting-ed.org/handout3/Specific Concerns and Problems/night terror

Extractions: A night terror is a sleep disturbance that can be very upsetting to parents. When children have night terrors, they usually scream or cry out and appear to be frightened, as if they're reacting to a nightmare. Children having night terrors may appear very frightened. They may sit up in bed, thrash their arms and legs, and seem terrified. Night terrors are often more upsetting to parents than they are to the children who have them. When parents try to calm their children during night terrors, they often find that their children do not seem to recognize them and do not respond to them. This is because children having night terrors are still asleep. Their eyes may be wide open, but in fact they are asleep. Parents often confuse night terrors with nightmares, when in fact they are very different. Night terrors are less common than nightmares. Unlike nightmares, night terrors take place during very deep sleep and generally occur during the first four hours of sleep. Though they are rare, they most often occur around the ages of four and five, and they usually stop around eight years of age. Night terrors are not usually considered to be dangerous or to be a cause for concern. It is not presently known why children have night terrors, but they do tend to run in families. They are not believed to be related to stresses or problems in everyday life that children may have. They are usually not upsetting to children, because they don't remember the night terror the next day, and do not wake up while they are having them. Most often the children having night terrors return to quiet sleep within a short period of time.

Nightmares And Night Terrors - Preschool Sleep Article
Is your child having frequent nightmares? It may have more to do with where your child is at developmentally than anything else.
http://www.theparentreport.com/resources/ages/preschool/sleep/121.html

Extractions: Resources Preschool Sleep Nightmares and Night Terrors Sleep researchers have discovered that children dream far more than adults. For example, studies indicate that a child under a year dreams for about five and a half hours a night, while a twenty year old adult will dream for only one and a half hours. Unfortunately dreams sometimes turn into nightmares, especially common among preschool and preteen children. Sleep specialist, Dr. Shelly Weiss explains that the reason children suffer from nightmares most at these ages is because this is "when there are more conflicts in a child's life. In the young child these may be around separation and starting school, and in the older child they may be around preteen issues. So during those periods, the infrequent nightmare isn't a concern." Children are often frightened by their nightmares and may require a little extra assurance when they wake from one. But not so for night terrors. Dr. Weiss says children don't even remember having them. "A night terror usually occurs in a preschool child. It's a partial awakening so the child is half awake, half asleep. When you see the child it may be quite scary because your child may have a glazed look, be thrashing and screaming, yet in the morning will have no memory of that event." As alarming as night terrors are for the parent observing them, they are in fact completely harmless. Dr. Jonathan Flemming of the UBC Hospital's Sleep Clinic explains that "a night terror is a physiological state of hyper-arousal and what happens in that state is people have rapid heartbeat, are panting and breathing much more rapidly than usual, and they appear terrified."

What s the difference between Nightmares and night terrors? night terrors occur when children are partially aroused from deep (Stage 4) sleep.
http://www.chw.edu.au/parents/factsheets/nightmares_and_night_terrors.htm

Extractions: PDF Version Available Nightmares occur when your child is woken while having a bad dream. It is sometimes not easy to comfort your child because he or she might recall the content of the nightmare and be afraid to go back to sleep. Give your child a reassuring hug and then settling back to sleep is usually quick. Nightmares can occur in children of any age and are most likely to happen during the later part of the sleep such as in the early morning. This is when Rapid Eye Movement (REM) or Dream Sleep usually occurs. Nightmares can reflect worries that your child might be having during the day and it might be useful to talk to about this with them. With Nightmares, it is usually enough to reassure your child and stay with them until they are comfortably off to sleep again. The next day, it usually helps to talk about the dream and ask about any worries or fears they may be experiencing. With Night Terrors, your child will appear to be confused and not fully awake so keeping them out of harm's way is important. Make sure the home environment is safe as they may sometimes run around (see

http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/conditions/nightmare2.shtml

Extractions: Send it to a friend! Dr Trisha Macnair Nightmares and terrors are sudden disruptions of sleep, during which the child becomes (or appears to become) partly awake. Episodes can occur at any time of night but terrors usually occur during the first hour or two of sleep while nightmares occur later. What causes them? Who is affected? What are the symptoms? How is it diagnosed and treated? Exactly how or why nightmares and night terrors occur is not known. However, excessive tiredness, lack of sleep, an irregular routine for sleep and stress or anxiety may all increase the risk. Night terrors appear to be a disorder of arousal - if the child is disturbed during certain phases of sleep they enter a state of confusion and disorientation rather than becoming fully awake. Nightmares are common and can occur at any age. Night terrors are more common in children than adults, tend to run in families and usually start before the age of 10 (most common age two to six). What are the symptoms?

Extractions: Send it to a friend! Several times a week (sometimes several times a night) my four-year-old son wakes up with what his sister calls a 'crazy'. This has been going on ever since he started school last year. He wakes up really upset and seems very frightened of something, but we can't get any sense out of him. I'm worried these bad nightmares have something to do with school. What can we do to stop them? Sam Your son isn't having nightmares, but another common sleep problem among children called night terrors. Link to stress or tiredness Night terrors occur in about three per cent of children. They're more common in boys and tend to run in families. Like most sleep problems, the cause of night terrors isn't completely understood but they seem to be linked with stress and over-tiredness. It may well have something to do with the fact that your son is now at school. However, it's probably more to do with him being very tired (as most children are when they first start full-time) rather than something worrying him. Still asleep Night terrors occur while a child is in deep sleep. They seem to wake up distressed, terrified and thrashing around - just as you describe - but in fact they're not awake. Instead they're trapped in some strange sleepy state. It isn't possible to speak to them, make yourself understood or understand them as they can't usually speak any sense. And although they seem very upset, they can't remember what happened in the morning (unlike nightmares and dreams, which small children can sometimes recall).
