The delightful children’s book, Big Boys Sleep In Their Beds, helps little ones feel safe and secure in their nighttime routine.
About Author Neta Faynboym:
Β Neta and I have been friends since meeting in medical residency at the University of Missouri. She is a smart and caring physician and a wonderful mother. In her free time, when she is not spending it with family, she enjoys writing, Pilates, cooking, and reading.
The inspiration behind this book cameΒ a few years ago when she was trying to help her 2-year-old kiddo feel more comfortable sleeping in his own bed. Her son is now 6 and loves sports, LEGOS, and anything requiring construction. Recently he has been learning how to cook.
About Big Boys Sleep In Their Beds:
This book provides parents with a touching, yet entertaining way to help small children feel secure in their own beds. The caring, kind words written by Neta, along with the engaging illustrations teach children to be more independent and to not fear “monsters” hiding under the bed.

I like the message being communicated by the book. The title and the cover alone already speak about it. I guess it will help prepare kids to sleep on their own beds and be brave especially at night. We all went through that phase right?

Hello!
Yes, definitely. Thanks for stopping by!

This sounds like a great book. My girls love their evening story time! We could also use an encouraging book that keeps them in their beds!

It sounds like a great book. I used to dread when the boys ended up in my bed at night. It was hard to sleep and now that its been like four months, I actually kinda miss it. Growing up is bittersweet.
Amy Kathleen Kelsch says
Hi Heather,
Yes, I bet it is hard to see those little ones grow up. π

What a great book if you are struggling at bedtimes. My youngest was the hardest to get to sleep at night.

Michelle says
I love a good kids book, especially if it’s one that helps them deal with fears or common issues. I’m lucky that my kids never wanted to sleep in my bed, but I know SO many people who could use this!
Amy Kathleen Kelsch says
Hi Michelle,
Yes, definitely. I appreciate the comment.

I can’t help but wonder if this book may help my youngest switch to his own room, I know it says “Big Boys Sleep in Their Beds. He sleeps in his bed, but still in our room. Well, mainly because we’re worried he’ll wake before us and get into things or leave the house.
Amy Kathleen Kelsch says
Hi Sarh,
It definitely is work a try. Thanks for stopping by!

Now where was this book 8 years ago when I had a man cub growth in my bed every single night! If he wasn’t in the bed he was lying beside the bed on a “blanket bed” . It wasn’t until his baby sister came that he finally went back to his room. LOL!!

My son had a lot of issue sleeping in his big boy bed. He still sneaks out sometimes to come sleep with us. This book would be awesome for me to read to him!
