About The Book

THE BOOK. THE GAME. Bedtime is the worst. At least it is at my house. I found that getting my children excited about bedtime was the only way to get their "buy-in" to the idea. I tried lots of different techniques, but none worked as well as the new ritual that my daughter Lauren and I created, where we thought up crazy things we intended to dream about that night, told each other and then wrote them down. We ended up calling it "Whatcha Gonna Dream About?" We liked the idea that this game was something we came up with on our own. I'm not sure either of us remembers how it originally started, but it ended up being successful, and a lot of fun. It was useful not only to get my daughter to look forward to going to bed, but it also became a way to stimulate the imagination while having the added benefit of pulling her away from iPads, iPhones, and television. I started to look forward to that time, too. It became a really special part of the day because it was such high quality one-on-one time. It was a game but also a conversation, and as much I wanted to encourage her thoughts, I also enjoyed that we both could play. We have played this game for years and have written down hundreds of crazy, funny, off-the-wall dream ideas. We saved them all, and this book represents what I believe to be the most memorable. I shared these with every child I could find between the ages of three and eight, and I couldn't find a single kid who didn't laugh uncontrollably like they knew something that I didn't.

About The Author

Palma, Lauren: - THE SCIENCE The game was so effective in helping my kids fall asleep that I did a little research and discovered, much to my surprise, that our game had incorporated two proven techniques to help people relax and fall asleep; creating pictures and visualization. Creating pictures a sleep method that suggests you imagine something that you find simple and pleasing. As you hold that picture in your mind, you are told to study every detail with your mind's eye: colors, patterns, and the setting such as a farm in a valley with animals grazing in the fields. Then you go further. If you're on the beach, feel the sun on your face, your toes in the sand, the breeze on your skin, smell the ocean air. Visualization is a technique has two parts in which you use your imagination: the Journey and the Destination. In the simplest terms, you first create a destination in your mind and picture it in detail. Once you know exactly where you're going, you imagine your journey there as vividly as possible. Visualization is also known as guided imagery and is a close cousin of meditation and hypnosis. Practicing it can shift brain wave activity. Imagining specific pictures can support the brain's movement toward deep, restful sleep. Making it part of a regular bedtime routine can be an important part of falling asleep. When Lauren and I play Whatchagonnadreamabout, she will place herself in the picture and participate, so when some fish go skydiving, she is there and can tell you exactly what the air feels like and what the weather is doing. This has really worked for us, and I urge you to try it with your family. Sometimes it might not work perfectly, but don't worry; you will still be creating special moments with your kids and those ideas that come out of it will be with you and your children for the rest of your lives. To this day, my daughter and I still laugh about some of our most outlandish ideas. We continue to read through her "Dream Pad" and think back to the night that she invented her favorites. It is in these special moments that you are connected and thinking and motivated towards the same purpose: to use and explore the imagination, and that's why I wanted to share by writing this book. I hope it works for you and your family like it has for ours!
