Product Description |
The Swan and The Mermaid (ages 3 to 6)
Two peaceful stories with waves, flutes, and wind chimes that help young children (ages 3-6) relax, heal, and fall asleep. These stories developed with hospital pediatricians and child psychologists to help children cope with medical procedures, psychological problems, hospital stays, and everyday stress; and to help activate the body s natural healing process. They are appropriate for use in the home and in the hospital. The Swan and The Mermaid feature the story-telling mind-body technique that has proven effective for this age group. In these stories, children are led on peaceful adventures with a brave and comforting friend. Woven into these delightful stories are carefully researched age-appropriate mind-body techniques including guided imagery, relaxation, and healing exercises. Each story uses a slightly different narrative technique to appeal to children in different stages of development. This CD is ideal for children who:
* Are sick or hospitalized * Have trouble relaxing or falling asleep. * Have siblings or parents who are sick or hospitalized. * Have ADD, ADHD, OCD, separation anxiety, depression, or panic disorder. * Are undergoing a change such as a new school, new child in the family, move, or divorce. * Are having a hard time at school. * Are traveling. * Are afraid of the dentist, doctor, the dark, nightmares... * Are suffering from PTSD after a storm or some other traumatic experience. * Are undergoing medical treatment such as surgery or chemotherapy * Suffer from asthma, IBS, or other chronic medical conditions.
The compositions in both pieces were recorded at the tempo that has been proven to be the most effective at evoking the relaxation response through a scientific phenomenon known as rhythm entrainment. |

Great for my kids!

| Reviewer: Ronnie Santos, |
I bought "The Swan and The Mermaid" for my 4 year old and "Rainbows and Sunshine" for my 7 year old. A friend told me about them.
My younger daughter just loves The Swan and The Mermaid, it is very soothing and the stories are just right for her age. After a few days of listening to this CD every night before bed, she began to look forward to this nightly ritual. Our bedtimes are so much easier now! It helps her relax, and she is asleep before the CD ends. I bring the CDs on car trips, and it makes it the trip easier, and helps her fall asleep at Grandma's house!
When she was afraid to go to the dentist, I used one of the suggestions in the CD's cover, and it really helped! She tends to be on the anxious side, and I am happy to think that I can help her learn to relax and how to think more positively at such a young age. I am just learning that now!
Sometimes I listen to it with her, and I find the soothing music and peaceful voice very relaxing! I am definitely ordering the adult one for me and husband, and one for my sister who is a little like my daughter.
I highly recommend these to anyone who has kids, especially kids who are anxious or have trouble calming down and going to sleep.

I got this CD for my sister's daughter, because my kids and I love their other CD (Rainbows and Sunshine for middle-aged kids) so much. It was as good as I hoped it would be! It teaches children how to think positively and do simple mind-body exercises while telling them a story. I can't emphasize enough how important I think this is for children today!
You can tell that a lot of thought and work went into this CD. The music is beautiful, and it is perfect for my young niece. She loves to listen to it, and I happy to have introduced my sister and niece to this product!
You will be thrilled with this CD!

I previewed the CD before I played it for my son, as suggested, and I was pleasantly surprised when I heard the music! As a musician, I really appreciate the time and effort that someone took to create this music. The music in this CD is beautiful; you can tell that the music in the Mermaid was written just for this narrative. The instrumentation is just right for young children, not your typical midi stuff. And you can tell that the stories were written by people who work with kids and know a lot about this field. I am really glad I chose this for my son.
It really works for my son. it calms him down and has given me some ideas of how to help him when he is frightened.
This is a top-notch product; I recommend it!

I found this to be a helpful tool for helping my daughter fall asleep. The guided story was uplifting and pleasant, and I found myself entertained by it, too. Freeman's voice is very soothing and relaxing.

Helped 3 year calm down to sleep

| Reviewer: KM, |
| This CD really helped our 3 year old calm down at sleep time. He has a lot of energy and it's very hard for him to get to sleep. So we'd do our routine and then put this CD on while he laid in bed. It was a great sanity saver. |
