Re: Nightmares
Can she remember the nightmares? If she can tell you what they are about would make it easier. For instance, if it's monsters, you can try a 'monster spray' or 'monster dust' ... use a bottle with water & glitter or a bottle of powder & label with 'monster dust' or spray & have her use it before getting into bed, telling her it will keep the monsters away.
If its not monsters, or you're not sure, you can still use this method but make something like a 'fairy spray' (or powder) with a label saying it will protect against anything.
A method such as this puts the idea in the child's mind that they are protected, so they go to sleep calmer, & often it stops the nightmares.
