The statement that prior to age 9, children's dreams seem more like a slide show and less like an active story in which the dreamer is an actor, suggests that the content of dreams is related to cognitive development. As children's cognitive abilities develop, their dreams become more complex and incorporate narrative elements. This is consistent with research indicating that dreaming is related to cognitive processes, memory consolidation, and problem-solving.
