Helping Kids With Nightmares

When you can’t sleep it is a horrible and long drawn out night, but it is even worse when your little one can’t sleep either because they are too scared to go to bed. While you may think nightmares are just a phase and will pass soon, it is important to help your kids cope with nightmares so they are getting adequate amounts of sleep. Doing so will help them do well in school and grow up healthy.
