Playdate and magic dream spray

Today R had her first ever playdate with a school friend, and it was my first ever too as a hosting mum!
I have to admit that I was looking forward to it just as much as R! When R woke up this morning she kept asking if it was time for her friend to come yet, and if I could call her mummy to ask her when she was coming. Seeing as she wasn't coming until after lunch, I had to think of something to do for her to pass the time. So we went to the fun day which was being held in the local high street where A works. The children had a turn on a fire engine carousel ride and then on a trampoline. Next we went to the library for some reading.
When the time came and her friend arrived, she was so excited and happy to see her. She didn't know what to start playing, so I offered some guidance and suggested play-doh. This kept them busy for the best part of an hour. They even allowed little K to play with them, and he was so chuffed to be playing alongside the two girls. Next, they decided to play dressing up, and they chose princess dresses along with tiaras, slippers and purses. Adorable! Then I arranged a picnic tray of snacks which they wanted to have under the table along with their teddies and cuddly toys arranged inside their 'tent'. After this, they went back upstairs to R's room and played 'shop' with one of them buying and the other selling. All this time, K was just so happy to be playing alongside them, they never argued once about anything. Throughout the whole 3 hours they were together, there wasn't a peep out of anyone. I was truly amazed! Finally, they sat down to do some colouring before it was time for her friend to go home.

Recently, R has been waking up several times a night and coming to my bedside. She says she has bad dreams and when I take her back to her room, she says she doesn't want to sleep alone. I decided to try something I'd read in Jo Frost Supernanny's books and try a magic spray. This was suggested for keeping monsters away, so I've adapted it to have special spray that makes you not have any bad dreams. Last night it worked, and I'm using it again tonight.
