 - Love It!My five year old asks for this every night. She told me how she used some of the techniques at school when she got angry. Her teacher loves it too. Rating:  - Not GreatBought for my 8 year old daughter. She loved the first one, so I was really excited to get this one for her. First off, it isn't a woman speaking on the cd, it's a man. The first one was a woman. That threw my daughter off big time. She didn't like listening to the man. She also said it was boring and they talked about the dolphins too much (she even really likes the dolphins) I just don't think this cd was up to par compared to the first one. Rating: - Repetitive - The same EXACT one as Indigo Dreams. But great if you don't have the first.I am kind of bummed because I went by one of these reviews that called this a "sequel" to the other one. It is NOT a sequel but is the exact same thing -- only the characters and setting have changed. Even my 8-year old noticed right away - "Oh this is the caterpillar story" and "this is the boy and the bear." We really liked the first CD, Indigo Dreams, and since this was described as for age 8-12, we thought it would be that "next step." Yet I feel we completely wasted money since we already had the first. But if you don't have the first, then this is a great item. I don't know too many 12 year olds who would listen to it, but it's great for kids 6-10ish who need to learn relaxation techniques. Right away my son incorporated some of the techniques and is beginning to make some process with his anxieties. Rating:  - needs a few changes to be greatI bought this for my eight year old. Nice stories, but the Cd is too long for a child to hear in one night and fall asleep at a decent time. My suggestion to the creator would be..Please alternate stories with music. The child could listen to one story and fall asleep to the music. The next night they could listen to another story and music, etc. My daughter told me " I had to stay awake to hear the end!" The stories are great! Rating: - Indigo Ocean Dreams: I listen to this CD with my two children, who are two and three, at nap time. We all really enjoy each tale. Each story incorporates calming exercises, which are beneficial to everyone listening. Excellent CD and I will be purchasing the others! I would definitely recommend this for the whole family!
