My Own Bed
by Pam Washington
Children & Sleeping Alone
Some children are afraid to sleep alone. Despite Mom and Dad’s reassuring words, looking under beds, and checking door locks; the child is reassured only by a parent’s warm body snuggled next to them. Sleep is when children feel vulnerable. When given a choice, a scared child will always choose the comfort of a warm parent rather than rely on her own resources for comfort. Comforting oneself is a skill learned through experience, not rationality.
Meet Stacy
Experience the journey with Stacy as she sleeps in her own room for the first time, a fright time. Stacy conquers her fear, with dad's help, along the way. Every little one can enjoy the peace and comfort of sleeping in their own bed too.
