Montgomery the Monster: A Mindful Bedtime Story for Kids

In Montgomery the Monster, a little monster learns to face his fears. There’s a big party and Montgomery wishes he could be invisible like Larry but when he makes a mistake he finds out he isn’t the only nervous little monster, and makes a friend. This playful story encourages bravery, friendship, and self-kindness—helping children build confidence in social situations and calm anxious hearts. Hey parents, here are 4 ways to Beat Anxiety at Bedtime: 1) Do the little dance with your child and hold your fists tight - this is a pressure and release activity. 2) Model doing the deep breaths with your child. 3) Repeat the affirmations with your child. 4) Ask your child what their brain says to them when they go to parties or other big events.
