kesmom Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 My 2 year old is fighting naps, but still needs them desperately. (his night sleep is rarely good when he skips his nap) I was wondering if anyone had any specific recommendations for a CD he might lay still and listen to. Music or stories. CD or itunes download. I will try anything right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn E Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 My ds has been enjoying The Classical Child Is Born at bedtime. It seems to soothe him. Music with singing is too distracting for him.... Some of the songs are rather upbeat, but I keep the volume low. Best wishes. I know how hard that can be.

ladydusk Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 My three year old has really liked her "Guly Andews" CD that came with this book: Julie Andrews' Collection of Poetry, Songs, and Lullabies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veritaserum Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 My 3yo loves this Toddler Sleepy Time CD. It is a guided story about a fairy that helps little ones fall asleep. She requests it every night. http://www.hypnobabies.com/store/shop.php?pid=46&sid=9&cid=9&start=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABQmom Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 When my kids were little, the Cedermont Kids CD's would put them right to sleep in the car. It they started fussing or wouldn't sleep and needed to on a long trip, we would pop one of those in and sweet sleep would ensue. Some of the titles are more jazzy than others...

ScoutTN Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 My kids have both liked Bach for Breakfast and Beethoven for Bedtime. Also a fave here is Fernando Ortega's Hymns and Meditations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I played these two for Adrian since he was born. I got the Inner Child just before he was born and Lady of the Lake shortly after. Dolphin Music for the Inner Child Lady of the Lake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaurainMD Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Audiobooks of Winnie the Pooh have worked for all my kiddos. My 2 yo DS currently falls asleep at naptime (and bedtime) to the soundtrack from the movie Songcatcher -- it's all Appalachian folk music. Very soothing and lullabye-ish.
