Neko Atsume age regression moodboard!

♡ cuddle with your stuffies or favorite blanket to protect you while you sleep! they help make you feel secure

♡ using a nightlight assures there’s nothing in the scary dark! if you awake from a nightmare, you’ll be able to see familiar things and remember where you are

♡ keep the door open a little! it helps remind you family, friends, or your caregiver are close by or helps you from feeling trapped in the darkness

♡ have a calming smell to help relax you! spray your stuffies/blankets/pillows with your favorite smell or essential oils like lavender, jasmine & chamomile

♡ don’t drink caffeine, alcohol or eat too much sugar before bedtime! caffeine keeps you alert up to six hours after consumption. can also lead to an hour less of sleep at night :((

♡ get enough sleep every night & don’t stay up too late! try going to bed and waking up at the same times everyday

♡ don’t watch or read scary/upsetting things before bedtime!

♡ hang up a dream catcher! they catch all the icky nightmares and go away when the sun comes up
