What are your favourite books for sending your children to sleep? Share on this thread to win Peppa Pig goodies [THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED]

[EmilyMumsnet]

To celebrate the publication of George & the Noisy Baby, we're working with Ladybird Books to find out which books you read to your children to help send them to sleep.

Share your favourites on this thread and one lucky participant will receive a whole bundle of Peppa Pig storybooks and other exciting goodies. There are also ten copies of George & the Noisy Baby for the runners up.

To enter our competition, just write in and let us know which books you read your DCs when bedtime has gone awry. We want to hear about classic storybooks and new finds – does ‘Goodnight Moon’ work for your baby, or is ‘Go The F* To Sleep’ more their thing? Share your stories on this thread before 10am on Monday 30 March. George & The Noisy Baby is published on 5 March 2015.

my little boy loves books at the minute the jolly postman is our fav at the minute

My 19 month old son is Peppa mad! He recently started singing the Peppa theme song. It's the sweetest thing I've ever heard.
He's a book monster at bedtime. He loves Monkey Puzzle the most, The Gruffalo, Hungry Caterpiller, and Rainbow Rob are all firm favourites too.
He's open to anything with colourful illustrations though.
Peppa pig books would probably blow his little mind!

We swap ours about each night but "Can't You Sleep Little Bear" is a lovely soothing book to read before bed

We love Stick Man and Room on the Broom.

Cinderella or Snow white xx

The runaway bunny is our favourite at the moment - my daughter loves peppa pig thought too

Im not sleepy is always a bedtime favourite and We;re going on a bear hunt xxx

Two favourites for bed time are by Jill Murphy. They are Whatever Next and Peace at Last. My son also loves the books we got from doing the HENRY course and I have to read at least one of them once a day to him.

Goodnight Moon :}

Sleepy Me by Marni McGee always does the trick with DS2 if I read it really softly and slowly.

My almost 7 year old and I are currently reading the Worst Witch series together before bed.

Both her and her 2 year old sister love Winnie the Witch books.

Owls seem to be the favourite right now. Owl Babies, and the Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark!

The Gruffalo is the favourite, also Winnie the Pooh and Paddington Bear

DS is awaiting ASD diagnosis so doesnt like to read books more than once.
So he happily read school book once but after that hubby must read to him. Usually whatever hes reading on the ipad and bores DS to sleep pretty sharpish

We are reading The Enchanted wood to my twin boys to try and settle them down at night now the clocks have changed x

Can't you sleep little bear, by Martin Waddell... My favourite as a child and now my little boys favourite!

my boys love Jack and the Beanstalk and other Ladybird classics
