Sleep Resources

Just a few of our favorite sleep things:


Twilight Turtle - Julia got this for Christmas and it was a big hit.  Even Esther really likes it.  Lucy and Julia share a room and we turn on the twilight turtle for them every night now at bedtime.  (It goes off after 45 minutes.)


Badger Night Night Balm - We will rub this on the girls noses, cheeks, hands, and chest before bed sometimes.  It smells great and they seem to enjoy it.

Books:
Sleepless In America - I'm reading this right now and enjoying the gentle yet knowledgeable approach.

The No Cry Sleep Solution - full of great ideas and tips to help your little one sleep better.  I have The No Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers on my bookshelf too.

Let the Baby Drive - This is not necessarily a sleep book, but it really helped me relax about my parenting and just focus on meeting my baby's needs, even at night.

What about you?  Is night time a challenge at your house?  I'm working on writing about our sleep story and some of the struggles we've had with the girls.  Check back in the next few days for that.

  1. I have to read those books - Isaiah is not wanting to sleep at night and I am so tired. I'm going to be making him some tea and a night time balm soon, too.

  2. The twins got a Twilight Turtle for Christmas, too! Liam got the Ladybug version. Super cute! They LOVE them. Liam is always asking which color he should have the stars be that night.:) Cool that they display actual constellations, too. We haven't emphasized that yet, but it will be fun in the future. I give them a two thumbs up, too!
