We are finding going to sleep as early as we do in winter almost impossible. The sun is shining and calling us outside for a walk or a quick game of soccer. So I am having to look for new ways to help my daughter go to sleep at night.
What she loves so much and what helps her relax is a nice slow paced massage each night. After we’ve had story time, I lay beside her and give her a back and neck massage (sometimes arms too), and we find that this helps her relax into the bed. Then my husband will often come and give us some therapeutic touch. If you haven’t tried that, it is simple to learn. At the very least touch is another way to love our children.
And of course if we aren’t going to be physically there, our Dream Child CD is always helpful.
What are ways you find helpful to help your child to sleep?

Are Your Children Sleeping at Night?
If you are having problems with your children sleeping at night, there could be any number of reasons why. One of the main reasons that many children seem to have problems sleeping is that their minds are very active, even when they are trying to sleep. While this is quite normal in a young growing mind, it can make it very hard for children to not only get to sleep but to sleep soundly all night long.
At
Joy Filled Music we understand this and at the same time we realize that there is something that we as parents can do about it. Since the beginning of time parents have used some form of music to help their babies get to sleep, our CDs have been designed along this principle and can help children of all ages not only go to sleep faster, but to enjoy a much deeper and more restful sleep.

Using music to help with children sleeping goes far back to when they were a baby and you used lullabies to help them drift off.

Joy Filled Music we have created a CD filled with music specifically to help children with sleeping. Not only will this music help your children to relax at the end of the day and drift off to sleep, it will help to build their self-esteem as they sleep, through positive reinforcement stories and songs that are designed to reach the subconscious mind.

Music is still the Best Way to Get Children Sleeping
Over the years we as a society have tried a number of different ways to get children sleeping, when they are having a hard time dropping off to sleep. From the rocking chair to the musical mobile and a variety of high tech ways, we can spend hundreds of dollars trying to help our children sleep. What we find is that music really is still the best way to get children sleeping you simply need to choose the right music.
Music should be soothing and easy to listen to; high energy music should be avoided since it will only make the problem worse not better. Music that sends positive messages about being loves and safe has been shown to help as well, children pick up a lot more than we give them credit for and sending the right message can help a great deal.
