Sweet Dreams
Sleep in a Bed to change your respawn point
Overview
Sweet Dreams is a task advancement in the Adventure tab of Minecraft's advancement system, carrying the in-game description "Sleep in a Bed to change your respawn point." It branches directly off Adventure, so that earlier advancement is its prerequisite and must be earned first. The Adventure tab covers advancements focused on exploration, combat, trading, and interacting with the world and its inhabitants. Sweet Dreams was added in Minecraft 1.12 and remains part of the current 1.21 advancement set.
It is rated Easy difficulty on this site: can be completed quickly with minimal resources. Good for beginners. It uses the standard task frame, meaning it is a normal step in the tree rather than a goal or challenge milestone. One further advancement, Sound of Music, is gated behind it.
In tree terms, Sweet Dreams sits first along its line: the full path from the Adventure root reads Adventure -> Sweet Dreams. That means 1 advancement must be completed before this one becomes available, and Sweet Dreams is one of 40 total advancements in the Adventure tab. It shares its parent with 16 sibling advancements (Voluntary Exile, Monster Hunter, What a Deal!, Sticky Situation, Ol' Betsy, Surge Protector, Crafting a New Look, Adventuring Time, Is It a Bird?, Caves & Cliffs, Under Lock and Key, Who Needs Rockets?, Blowback, Minecraft: Trial(s) Edition, Postmortal, and Respecting the Remnants), all of which open from the same point in the tree.
