Yes we have had several! For my daughters EEGs she has had to be sleep deprived, so we schedule them around her nap time (noon) and we wake her up a little bit early on those days. She is usually tired enough to just hang out and eventually fall asleep during the EEG. They also always put cartoons on a tv for her. We also have our phones/iPad available for watching videos just in case.

Once all the stuff is on their head, I think it kind of takes their energy level down a notch. Like, they are aware that their movement is going to be limited, so they don't go too crazy with trying to move around.

@Mrs. Oatmeal: My neighbor had a continuous 24 hour and she was allowed to move as normal, but with a special thing on her head to keep it all in place. I don't know if she has to be still for an hour for the shorter one.
I used to do EEG exams on adults, and the gel might be cold but there is no pain or anything. Relatively pretty easy to sit through.
