Discovery: “You Can Put Your Kids to Bed Without the War and Guilt! Bonding with your kids before bedtime…beautiful, lovely, heartwarming. Three words can change those loving moments to a living hell. What three words? “Time for Bed!”

Suddenly, passive and loving children becomes a parent’s worst nightmare! After the bedtime battle, comes the guilt. What did I do wrong? (Crying and screaming kids in the background.) You can change that scenario! All the “Psyches” weigh in on this problem. The consensus: Make bedtime a peaceful and happy event for the children. Easier said than done, right? I’ve been there! The number one suggestion: (Yes, you know it.) READ THEM a STORY!

This book was created to make bedtime fun for kids, “If Only WE Could Sleep in Your Warm, Cozy Bed” is a story where a child’s bed is transported to various habitats of wild animals. The bed is in a jungle, on a mountain top, in a mud puddle and other animal habitats. Each animal is loving the child’s bed. The pictures are silly…can you imagine an elephant sleeping in the child’s bed? What about six monkeys? Here is the powerful message in this story: If all these creatures are loving your warm, cozy bed, then the child will see going to bed in a favorable light. Children need constant reinforcement that their bed is a special place and that they are so lucky to have it. This story also is helpful when children go from a crib to their first “big boy or big girl’s bed”.
