The Floppy Sleep Game Book by Julia Bourland (2005, Package)

This book and CD set is great! My son and I saw this game on a Dateline NBC program. We discussed it and He said he would like to try it. My son is 6 and he has always had trouble going to sleep. He also always wanted to sleep with us, which always caused a struggle. This method worked right away. We are starting the 3rd week and he is going to sleep by himself and not asking to sleep with us! I am very happy. I also like the suggestion of making your own personal recording for your child. The Dateline program said that the game was appropriate for ages 3 or 4 and up. However they showed a 4 year old on the program and the game wasn't working. In my opinion the game is for a little bit older child like 6 and up. If you have a very mature 5 or possibly 4 year old it might work. I just don't think that my son would have been able to do this when he was 4. He might of when a few months ago when he was a late 5, but not before. I think it is great for mid-Kindergarten and up. We tried everything to get him to sleep by himself since he was 6 months old from the Ferber method on; and this is the first thing that worked! I hate that it has taken 5 1/2 years but the past 2 weeks have been great! He talks about the characters introduced in the stories and is excited for the most part to go to bed! I recommend this method to anyone who has a Kindergartener or older who has trouble going to sleep.
