Developing effective sleep patterns is an important goal in early childhood development and learning. Many parents of toddlers and preschoolers recount nightly bedtime battles. They dread the process and anticipate a struggle every night. Same thing goes for naptime. This often occurs in a daycare or early childcare setting. If parents and other caregivers approach naptime and bedtime with anxiety and trepidation, these negative feelings become contagious and the child's level of arousal increases. It is important to establish a naptime and bedtime routine that is consistent and that progressively calms the child's demeanor. MY BOX OF DREAMS is designed to create a soothing atmosphere that helps the child make the transition to sleep quietly and calmly. The transitional tempos bring down their activity level and make it easier for them to go from playtime to nap/bedtime. The songs also become cues for parents to frequently send their child the key message of love and hope, and promote bonds of attachment and security. GROWING SOUND (a division of Children, Inc.) develops songs based on the latest research in social-emotional development and learning. Growing Sound songs are used in early childhood classroom and homes worldwide.
