Could this be a growth spurt?

My 10 year old DD in recent weeks has developed an increased appetite as well as seeming to need more sleep. This week she has even had one or two long daytime naps!

She doesn't have particularly late nights or early mornings - obviously due to the circumstances we are out of the school routine to a certain extent.

Just wondered whether she could be going through a bit of a spurt. Has anyone else experienced this? I know this is notoriously known in boys but is it just as common in girls?

Yes I think this sounds like a growth spurt. My 12 year old seems constantly hungry at the moment,she has grown a lot in the last 2 years.
