Parent’s Guide

Are you a parent with a child suffering nightmares, night terrors, or other sleep struggles?

If so, you’re well aware of the damage bad sleep wrecks on your child’s growth and wellbeing. The way your child sleeps means much, much more than their mood the next morning, especially at such a critical time in their lifetime development.

Sleep nurtures minds and bodies in perhaps the most important stage of your child’s growth. It’s the time for their minds to absorb and mold and broaden, and for their bodies to channel energy and nourishment into growing bodies.

Did you know that children “spend 40 percent of [their] childhood asleep” according to research from the Sleep Foundation?

Stakes are high: bedtime health constitutes almost half of all early childhood development. Meaning, it is absolutely imperative to protect your child’s sleep time at all costs.

The reality is, says Dr. John A. Cown, Jr., MD., nightmares and night terrors affect up to 50% of children between ages three to five. These difficult phenomena threaten the pure environment your child, and your child’s future, deserve.

Your role as a loving parent is to shepherd your child through their difficult nights. You want that. But how can you help them when you aren’t able yourself?

Let’s be frank, here: parenting is hard. Your work drains your energy. Time depletes against you. Your child gets you when humanly possible--but sometimes “humanly possible” isn’t adequate on its own.

And that’s your family’s biggest problem: at the precise moment your child needs you the most, you’re at your lowest. 

You need an ally, a remedy: something safe, soothing, and substantial that will pull your weight when you can’t.

Sleep and Playful Learning Matter the Most.

Children are constantly adapting to an expansive world full of potential and mystery. And while children brim with creativity and opportunity, such rapid exposure to a series of unknowns also often creates fear and uncertainty.

Children, everywhere, deserve the fundamental right to a safe night’s sleep--the chance to feel safe, secure, and refreshed. Because when a child wakes up in a smooth state, their natural charisma and creativity spills into opportunity.

Sleep is their time to develop and your time to recover. When you choose NightBuddiesⓇ as a part of your child’s wellness plan, you curate the perfect atmosphere for your child.

NightBuddies® take it further: we design our products with our fingers-on-the-pulse of child psychology. Our toys speak your child’s language.

See: playing, for children, is like a conversation. Play is how children communicate, learn, and connect.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), discovered that “play can improve children's abilities to plan, organize, get along with others, and regulate emotions. In addition, play helps with language, math and social skills, and even helps children cope with stress.”

“Playful learning, where children take the lead and follow their own curiosity, should be the main focus of high-quality early childhood education,” continues the AAP.

Let’s give children the right toys to play and sleep well.
