Aim of the study: The present study was done to obtain a baseline for clinical indications  of EEG in children and to evaluate the Electroencephalography (EEG) findings in children with various acute, chronic CNS disorders and non epileptic events.   Patients and methods: The Electroencephalography (EEG) records of 250 patients were studied, which was done at neurophysiology departments of Queen Rania AL-Abdullah Hospital for children in Jordan.  For each patient underwent EEG record the following data were recorded, age, sex, source of referral ( in patient department or  out patient ) , reason for Electroencephalography (EEG) , diagnostic impressions and clinical presentation , the result of the EEG examinations  and clinical correlation between the seizure type and EEG finding .   Results: Males slightly outnumbered females: 55% males.  The majority of cases sent for EEG fell between 6-12  years , Total of 63.2 % of all referrals for EEG were from outpatient clinic while in patients account for 36.8%. pediatric neurology department referrals being highest 28.8 %, the majority of diagnosis at referral were suspected epilepsy (80%), epileptiform EEG abnormalities was detected in ( 32%) , Over all 64 % the EEG records were normal , All EEG records of children with syncope , headache were normal .    Conclusion and recommendation: We conclude that there are many unnecessary routine EEG recordings in children;  Investigation of epilepsy and acute encephalopathies appear to be the most valuable indications for routine pediatric EEG.  EEG can help in classified of the seizure, finding a way to reduce EEG requests is request
