(ignore if it is not a problem any more.)<br /><br />The boys and I have made signs that say "No monsters allowed" and then they color them and tape them to their door. I know it seems really simple but it has worked for both of my boys. Then I just remind them that the monsters can't come 'cuz they have a sign now. It also works great for going to grandma's house. <br /><br />I like the monster spray but probably would not put food coloring in it cause it might stain when sprayed. Maybe just use a cool colored spray bottle.Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352740345592605207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2221880184013909808.post-85333246054408137272009-09-17T23:24:13.839-06:002009-09-17T23:24:13.839-06:00I was going to suggest the monster spray too..

She'd cry out & I'd go running in her room to find her trying to swat them off of her pillow & bed. I'd feel SOO bad!! With her it was really hard because she'd only wake up about halfway, so I couldn't really do much to help her since she wasn't really awake. I'd just sit by her & talk to her & rub her back or arms until she calmed down. They were always the worst if she hadn't had a good nap during the day. One thing I've heard of doing is to get a spray bottle & put some water with food coloring in it & call it "monster spray"! Then before bedtime (or maybe early in the morning when it's still bedtime!) spray her room with it & tell her that it keeps Monsters from being able to come in her room. I hope she gets over it soon. It's tough, isn't it?!? On her AND on YOU! GOOD LUCK!!! ;)** Adrian **https://www.blogger.com/profile/04443857894731964962noreply@blogger.com
