Does your child have trouble going to sleep? Looking for a great way to have them relax and go to sleep quicker? I received a CD titled “Sleep Well for Kids” and really love this because it’s great for kids of all ages but especially those younger children. It will even put parents to sleep! I love the soothing guided imagery and the relaxing melodies.
Janet Montgomery CH.t. is your guide as she leads you on a leisurely stroll through her neighborhood to a farm, where we are introduced to a variety of “friends” with a simple message of kindness to all animals, and respect for nature as we are relaxed to sleep. It is that simple, just a qualified guide with a sweet and comforting voice, and some beautiful music to help set the mood.
I like that children are introduced to the basics of breathing, progressive relaxation for their body, and visualization techniques for managing worry and relaxing into a restful sleep. I know my son, even at 11-years-old has a tough time relaxing and falling asleep. I think my favorite thing about this CD is that it does help manage anxiety a bit and worrying. It is very calming!

Self Disclosure: I received a free CD for review purposes.
calming music and stories.
I find a consistent bed time helps. But our girls do listen to music at night and I taught my son to count to relax when he was anxious at bedtime. This sounds like a great tool.
story time and calming music seems to help.
rub their back or hair
We read a story at bedtime and I lay with my kids a few minutes after we turn off the lights to help calm them down.
