Toddler scared of bedroom. Why?? She won't sleep in it, cries, etc.?

My 2 almost 3 year old girl is so scared of her bedroom!! I can't figure it out. She has the cutest little white bed painted with purple and pink flowers, a little purple and pink kitchen set, a little white table with purple and pink flowers on it, a soft fuzzy white rug, a soft fuzzy yellow rug, light yellow sheer drapes, a full-lenght mirror that she just loves, white shelves with all her books on it and a little lamp, fake purple flowers, her changing table that's really a desk painted white, and white walls with pretty little things hung on them. Her closet doors are dark brown. We can't paint this place, but are buying a place of our own and I need some good suggestions please!! (she WON'T sleep in there and always wakes up crying at night saying it's scary).

i'd guess it has nothing to do with the room


she probably doesn't like being alone


it's a phase, and you'll either


1) have to grit your teeth and see it through, or


2) make life difficult for yourself/ves and let her sleep in your room





go for 1, i shed tears with my first kid, getting him to go to sleep in his own bedroom alone, but it was worth it in the end
Reply:Does she always wake up at the same time ? can she sleep well in another room (by herself?)





Maybe the haning objects scare her, or maybe its something alot more sinister...





ask her what exactly is scarey!
Reply:My little cousin had that same problem. And everything was fixed by a simple safety pin.





His mom put a safety pin on his curtains next to his bed to keep them closed all the way and he's been fine ever since. It was really weird. Over the next couple weeks he slept in his room with no problems, and his mom asked him why he was ok in the room now. He said "It's because of the safety pin."





Go figure. I guess he had a little more peace of mind with it there.
Reply:It must be the monster under the bed. Is she ok sleeping alone elsewhere? You might want to (in daytime) take her around and ask her about each piece of furniture, window, etc. and ask if it is scary or bad. Then if nothing is scary, ask again after after dinner but not when you're trying to get her into bed. There might be a shadow or a strange noise that you don't even notice.
Reply:Get her a little nightlight if you don't have one already.
Reply:Your child may be feeling the presence of an unfriendly spirit. You will need to call for a minister to come and remove it or find someone to make rebuking prayers on behalf of you and your family.





Find someone to bless your house. Your house or the land it sits on may have wondering spirits. perhaps someone died there. Seek authentic spiritual help.





I wish you well.
Reply:Its the fake purple flowers....that will do it....more likely its Mom on the keyboard which is driving the poor kid nuts...at 3AM...goodluck...go sleep with her in her bed...maybe that will help
Reply:she's afraid of the dark by herself. many kids are.
Reply:sweetheart it doesn't matter what room you place her .. or how bright and beautiful it is


unfortunately at that age they are becoming aware , and do not like being in their own


the only way to beat this is to comfort her for a few moments until she falls asleep again


i have been through this with my 3 children ... and we have had several houses ( so it wasn't the room )


at 3 they are feeling insecure without being in same room as mum .. and their imagination is starting to take over


what i did with my middle one ( who was the worst ) .. i bought a little angel and placed it under her pillow and told her the angel would protect her and bring her nice dreams


it did work but its trial and error im afraid , to find what will work for your little one


don't worry though , she will grow out of it ... but be prepared for many broken nights sleep :o(
Reply:may be she sences things you cannot approach your local spiritulist church explain to them your problem if there is a spirit there that should not be they can get rid of it also a catholic priest can also get rid of it good luck and i hope you can get rid of your problem
