Have any of the mom's out there tried this? It says it has a money back guarantee, but I'm still not convinced. It would be for my three year old who stall's continuosely at bedtime. Would it work for a kid of his age?

What can I do next?

I bought this program to use with my infant son a couple years ago. It didn't offer anything new, so I "returned" it and did get a full refund--no questions asked.

I really liked The Sleep Easy Solution. There is a lot of great information for babies and toddlers. I pull out the book with each new sleep challenge for my toddler.

So, I guess I don't understand. You are the parent. You are the limit, what is the issue???
You say go to bed, develop a bedtime routine, and that's it! Have you seen the Nanny? It's real and being a mom of 3 adult kids, you need to be the boss!!! Bedtime is the begining of many other rules and regulations in life.
Be strong, Be the PARENT!!!

Yes, it is better geared to babies and young toddlers. There is a section on older kids but it isn't very extensive.

It is normal for a 3 year old to stall. I would recommend making sure you have a set bed time routine at a set time and making a pictoral chart of what you do before bed (bath, brush teeth, read 2 books, prayers, lights out). That way your 3 year old can follow the routine along. When you are done, kiss goodnight and that is it.

Good luck! C.

I think it's natural for them to stall at this age...more fun to play with mom and dad.
I used her program with my daughter when she was nine months and addicted to her pacifier. It worked very well and has a good step by step instructions. Not sure on older children. She also has a facebook page and offers monthly free phone support with purchase. Between her and Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child by Marc Weissbluth we have a 14 month old who sleeps through the night.
