SNORING infants and children are more likely to experience learning and behavioural problems.

Dr Biggs studied snoring in more than 160 children aged seven to 12 and found they suffered impaired learning, memory and behaviour.

Snoring is a symptom not the problem.

My son is 17 months old and before having his adenoids removed snored very loud. Since the surgery he hasn't snored at all except the first 2 weeks while he was recovering! I also used to snore really bad when I was a kid so I had my adenoids and tonsils removed and it really helped.

How can they be learning when they are sleeping/snoring?

EXACTLY! They obviously aren't paying attention.
