These worry boxes are a great way to ensure your child has sweet dreams

What a wonderful idea!

Irish company Love Alice Gifts has come with an adorable way to ensure that you child has a peaceful night's sleep. Their new 'worry boxes' are an ideal way to help rid your child of any nightmare anxiety they have before bedtime. Children can write or draw their worries and place them in the worry box, safe in the knowledge that they are locked up tight for the night. The boxes are also a great way for children to explore how they are feeling and express big emotions or concerns in a calm, safe way. The company which specialises in handcrafted creations posted about their latest product on their Facebook page this week;

"A cognitive behavioural therapy technique, Worry Boxes contain worries for a little one experiencing anxiety. The container keeps the worries, so the child can let them go. Like journaling, which is an effective therapy technique, writing or drawing the worry gets it out of the child’s mind and into a “vessel” where it is contained."

Love Alice Gifts are currently selling their worry boxes for an introductory offer of €12 and you can find out more on how to order one by them via their Facebook page.
