My faithful readers know I keep singing the praises of Twitter and all the wonderful, resourceful Mompreneurs and Mommy Bloggers that I’ve met through that new Social Media phenomena. I’ve also made some terrific contacts through the other social networking sites I belong to.
Dara Blaker, President of Helpful Hallie’s has contacted me to review a new product called Mighty Miracle Mist.
When my youngest daughter was a toddler, her bedroom was over the garage. We live in an old New England town, and our house has quite a bit of … character. Each night in order to get Pumpkin to get to sleep, we had to spray the half closets with “closet monster spray.” I guess we were ahead of the curve ~ even then!
Mighty Miracle Mist takes that thought one step further, and improves on it by offering a product that:
…[P]uts the principal of redirection into action. Redirection means, “to send in a new direction or course.” When working with children, instead of always saying “No” or “Don’t Do That or offering a threat of punishment, children are given an instruction in order to change their behavior pattern.
Children can be positively redirected to behave appropriately using Mighty Miracle Mist.
I received four 2-oz. Spray bottles entitled “Good Thinking & Pay Attention; Good Night; Cooperation & Sharing and; Kind Voice & Good Manners.”
Each bottle has a different color identifier, adorned with a cute Teddy Bear.
Ingredients are identified as: Purified Water, Safe and Non-Toxic Plastic Confetti. One can see the plastic confetti in the bottle which makes it look attractive. Instructions caution to “spray the air, not the child” to reinforce the expected behavior. However, once sprayed in the air, we weren’t able to see the confetti, but mentioned it was like “fairy dust, and magical.”
The product is recommended for children ages 3-6.
Made in the U.S.A.
The product is useful for for parents, teachers, homeschooling and caregivers ~ as a Grandmom, that means me too!

That sounds like a great product to help ease some of the opposition I get from my son when it’s time to change activities or when we correct him about something.
BTW, I stopped getting your email updates for awhile (not sure why, I was still subscribed) and I’ve been so busy I forgot to visit without them. They are back now, plus I’m trying to use a feed reader…we’ll see how that goes!

My nieces and nephews could really use the Good Night Spray. Anything to help get them in bed.

I would love the chance at this as Kelsie is about to turn two and some of our being “independent” means we need a little re-direction sometime.

I’ve never heard of anything like that before. I wonder if that would work on my little one? I would love to try any one of those to get my daughter to behave better. What a creative idea.

I would love to win this because I have a son who has extreme anxiety about sleeping alone and has not slept alone in 7 years. We have tried everything we can and maybe this would work.
Myrinda on Sun, 23rd Nov 2008 12:51 am
we really NEED this…I don’t know WHAT is going on with my 5yo, but she’s having problems listening and paying attention in school and is still having accidents sometimes…and I could use the Kind Voice myself, lol!

Wow. I prefer to raise my children with good old fashioned parenting. No smoke and mirrors here. Spray the closet for monsters every night and your child owns you. Tend to their emotional needs, but do not let them run all over you. Children play games and one of them is all about getting you to do what they want you to do. You are supposed to spray the child as a reward? Why not get one of those little treat sacks that dog trainers wear on their belts and throw your kid M&Ms every 2 minutes as they sucessfully navigate thru life. That will turn them into sucessful adults, I just know it will!

Rebecca ~ thank you for visiting my blog and taking the time to comment. FYI, my daughter is now 21, and doesn’t own me. My husband and I sprayed the closet for “monsters” for a very limited time. She comes from a loving home, and has grown up to be a beautiful, well adjusted person, and will be gradutating college in 2009-on track, in 4 years. I think we’ve done a wonderful job of parenting, as she’s never given us an ounce of trouble. Apparently we tended to her emotional needs, just fine, thank you.

I am struggling to find out how to deal with my 19-mo-old’s “misbehaviors” and am always looking for ideas. I’d love to try this! And scents are always wonderful learning opportunities, too.

I think this would be a lot of fun for my 5-year-old niece, who I take care of during the day! SHe is very active and has some behavioral problems. Using this spray would be such a fun way to get her to focus on her behavior! ANd the bedtime spray would make bed time a little more fun for her!

I just read Rebecca’s comment and I wanted to add that I disagree! I think every child needs a little magic in their life! Things like using this spray, or spraying the closet for monsters, are not about spritzing a child as a reward for good behavior, but about using a positive, playful way to remind the child of good behavior! Yes, saying “Do this or else, cause I’m the adult,” might also work for many kids… but there’s no harm in making life a little more fun!
