Puts him right to sleep

These put our 5 yr old to sleep fast

My sons favorite

My 7 yo son started listening to this via CD when he was 6. He loves it and was so happy when I found it as an app! Now when we travel I don't need to worry about the CD! He listens most every night. The women talking has a nice calming voice. I do t think he's ever stayed up to hear the end of it!

Great, but...

The content of this app is brilliant. It really helps my daughter sleep. But the functionality is terrible. No auto play and no options to change settings! For the price I would expect a better designed app.

Lovely stories but too exciting for bedtime

My two boys, aged 5 and 6 have been having trouble getting to sleep recently, so as meditation works for me, I thought this app would be perfect.

The stories are lovely, leading the child through beautiful, well described landscapes so they use their imagination. It moves really quickly though, giving no time for children to pause and look at the rainbow fish swimming by, or the blue ducks on the river.

By the end of the adventure in space, the boys were begging for another story, so I played By the Sea. When the story ended, leaving just the music, my eldest asked what the music was for. I said that it was meant to help him sleep. His response was "It makes my body feel like dancing". Yes, at the end of one of the meditation tracks, there is no soothing relaxing music, but dance music for kids.

After this meditation my kids were wide awake, wanting to talk to each other, and are now jumping around, acting out their adventure in space. Not a success, and I'll be asking for a refund.

This is a great download to have a little piece and quiet while the kids are listening. Bedtime meditation, it is not.

Wonderful app

My 9 year old was having problems with insomnia. This meditations solved it! He loves it and falls a sleep fast now!
Thank you!

Need more!

Love the meditations but please add more! For the cost we hoped there would be more to it.

I'm kinda shocked it worked!

My kids are hard to get to sleep, the 3 of them play off each other and bedtime takes ages.

We listened to the stories tonight for the first time and the 3 yr old had trouble settling in but by the third story she was calm and still and asleep before the end. The 6 yr old thought it was fantastic and kept herself awake to hear them all lol but when I started it again she was gone in mins.

I'm convinced that tomorrow will be easier and it'll just keep getting better. An hr might seem like a long time to some but not here, and the were calm for most of it. Def a win for us :-)

I would love to be able to choose to play all or one story to play, and have the option of plain music (even just a loop of the story without the voice) for when the story is done. 15/20 mins story with 30 ish mins of music would would so perfectly here. Otherwise I think it's a great product and will be telling my friends about it :-)

Well worth the $$

This is a great meditation app for kids! It's simple but effective and the woman's voice is very soothing. Great app! πŸ‘πŸ‘

Brilliant app for children

My 3 year old loves this app. There are three stories that are about 20 minutes long, with background music and the soft lilting Scottish tones of Christiane's voice. She asks for them regularly and often falls asleep by the end or shortly afterward. Thank you Christiane, more stories please!

Great, but doesn't autoplay

There is an autoplay feature on the free version, but the paid version doesn't have an autoplay version. I've got a five year old undoing her relation by yelling for a second track!

Truly though, ths is a wonderful app. It's worth every cent.
