You'll need to prepare a "Magic Monster Kit" which includes a small box or basket, a little flashlight, a small water bottle with a pump spray, and stickers or small prizes. When you have everything together explain to your little one that they now have their own "Magic Monster kit". Place it by their bed. Then, when they hear the sounds that go bump in the night they can take out their flashlight and shine it on their monster and spray it with the Magic Monster spray and all will be well...make sure to tell them that the Magic Monster spray only works at night after they've gone to sleep...so it can protect them...If you want, give them a prize for their success.
We did this with one of our kiddos and after the second night we didn't need the kit anymore! In fact, he was upset that the monster had not come to his room! |
