for mompreneur of two and anxious children nationwide
Mompreneur Debbie Glickman spent restless months searching for remedies to get her two young children to overcome anxieties associated with going to sleep. She bought everything from books to nightlights and even gave them warm milk at bedtime, but nothing worked. Then, after reading all about the attributes of lavender as a soothing and calming therapy, she came up with the idea of spraying lavender on their pillows. "I told them a story of how the magical spray will make scary thoughts go away, and it worked like a dream," says Glickman, who is now introducing her Sweet Dream Spray to help children fall asleep more easily.
In addition to Sweet Dream Spray, Glickman's new company, Fairytale Wishes, Inc. is unveiling a full line of naturally derived aromatherapy sprays that are designed to alleviate common childhood anxieties including: bad dreams and sleeplessness, fear of monsters under the bed, separation and self esteem issues. There are currently four products in the line that allow parents to help children naturally with the power of persuasion and scent therapy, and Glickman has several more in the works.
Fairytale Wishes products make transitioning children through common phases of childhood as painless as possible, and in the process may give them the ability to learn how to conquer anything.
Each four-ounce bottle (MSRP $10.00) comes with a mini fairytale written by Freddy, the magic Fairytale Wishes frog, which explains how a particular scent can help children overcome their fear.
For example, Fairytale Wishes invites parents to share the following tale while their child sprays Monster Repellant Bubble Gum Spray around their room:
This one is a "MAGIC" Bubblegum Monster Repellent Spray.
You spray it on your bed, in your closet or any other place you like and POOF! like MAGIC, the monsters, bed bugs and thing that go bump in the night go away!
Did you know that monsters are terrified of bubble gum?
Just the smell of it makes them turn and run.
You see, bubblegum gets in their fur and fangs and gets all sticky,
takes all of the fun out of scaring kids and monsters find just the smell of it very icky!
Parents can go on line http://www.fairytalewishesinc.com/ to get a free, personalized letter from Freddy, the Fairytale Wishes frog, to give kids even more of a happily ever after!
========================
Fairytale Wishes sent I Am Modern samples of each of the sprays. We gave the Super Hero Spray to a mom reviewer whose child was terrified of going to the doctors. Here is what she said:
Mia had to have a shot and if there is one thing she is more afraid than going to the doctors is going to the doctors and getting a shot. 2 days before we her appointment I told her I received this unbelievable spray that makes kids not afraid of things and I let her spray a little bit on herself (it has glitter in it, so my daughter was enchanted). I followed it up by saying, "I bet you feel braver already, right?" We did that a few times that evening and the next day. THEN, I told her we had to see the doctor. As she began her normal crying and screaming, I brought out the spray and gave it to her. "You might as well use this......" She was still really scared, but it definitely wasn't as bad as the other times. She actually didn't need to be held down for the shot. Next time I'll start much earlier in the week. I thought it was great.

We gave the Sweet Dream Spray to a day care center provider:
>With 15 kids, we have our hands full at naptime. There is ALWAYS that one child who is the hold out. I brought out the spray and sprayed it all around the room saying it would bring on sweet dreams. Since then they always remind me, if I forget to use the 'dream spray.' I did have some explaining to do to the parents, but now they want to know how to get their own.
