They're doing lots and lots of growing. And learning. They just look like they're doing nothing. But yeah, someone else might have a better answer.

They are storing it all up. When they are about 2 y/o they will begin to let it all out.

They do so much we can't see. THey are growing and processing. All little ones sleep a lot. We never require so much down time than when we're growing and making our brain, nerves, bodies.

They're just lazy...:P

Sleep doesn't use up kilojoules. Babies need to put on weight.. Being active and awake stops them doing that. Remember, their stomachs are tiny. They can only take in so much, then they need to process it. SLeep helps them do that. As their stomachs grow, they sleep less, because they can process more and more efficiently.
