Bedtime can be such a nightmare sometimes. With 2 small boys, at least one is guaranteed to put up a fight.
I was on the lookout for something to help make the bedtime process easier and found out about Shushybye.
Shushybye encourages toddlers and preschooler to look forward to bedtime. There is a hit TV show, plush dolls, CDs, DVDs, bedtime books, and sleepwear.
Shushybye send us a book and CD to try out. Each night we read a book together, so my boys were excited to get a new book. The colors on the front and nice and bright and the cover makes the book look like a fun read. And, best of all, the cover glows in the dark!
Snoozles, Dozie, and Zeez are 3 Shushy friends who like making drams and having fun together. After making dreams, they gather in Pillow Park for the nightly Shushybye Dance.
The CD has the “Shushybye Blues†song and two other original songs, along with the entire story narrated by a Shushybye storyteller.
The music was cute and upbeat. It’s always nice having books on CDs as well. We usually play music for our boys when they go to bed, so this is a great CD to add the mix.
I can’t say the book and CD really helped them stay in bed or fight less. But, we did enjoy reading the book and listening to the music.
You can buy Shusybye products on Amazon…or you can purchase SHUSHYBYE: SLEEPOVER SURPRISE from Borders Bookstores, Barnes & Noble or Target!!

a bath before bed always helps
I have found being consistent works as well as a short story in dim lighting

We read a book before bedtime each night and try our best to make sure she goes to bed at the same time. (It's hard with my DH's schedule)

I use lavender balm on my son's temples. Usually I'll give him a bath, read a book and listen to some soothing music before bed. I think they all help him sleep better. tylerpants(at)gmail.com

Routine is best. Story, hugs and kisses, then leave their room. Don't keep going back in everytime they call you.
My only bedtime tip is to make sure you adhere to a routine no matter where you are, be it home or away. It gives the child a sense of comfort and normalcy. peanut[at]nyc.rr.com
