Im trying hard to wean him off the boob, which was his dummy! All night long...
We are down to only 1 or 2 night wakings now, and he will go to sleep if I lie next to him for aaaaages or if he's watching spiderman on my phone Hmm
I'd like to get him something that incorporates either music or story cd, a light show / stars or something and also has a light to show when it's time to wake up. I found the ok to go owl on amazon us but not on the uk site.
I'd be really grateful for any suggestions! I think he would respond really well to something like this.
If it was batman themed it would work a treat Grin

DS - similar age - has a story CD and a Gro Clock.

A Batman shadow on the ceiling from a bedside light and say that Batman is watching over you, check every five minutes, then every ten mins then every fifteen minutes for a for a few days, dim it darker every night with a very quiet background music which again you lower the volume every time.

I second BikeRunSki on the gro clock. It worked for my DD

Ok this is a really stupid question... What do you play the story cd on? Kiddy cd player or mp3? I want to get something that will last ideally.
Love the batman idea, thank you! Just bought him a bedside table so next on the list is a lamp and gro clock then by the sound of it...

Story CD is just on an ordinary portable radio/ CD player. It's the old one we had before we got a digi radio alarm in grown ups bedroom. DD has one similar that I got a few months ago from Saino's for about £20.
