Lullaby Massage Rhyme and Touch Massage for Infants

Are you looking for a way to bond with your child and make bedtimes easier? This is the book for you! Sybil Hart combines massage and rhyme to make bedtime a calm and peaceful time for both parents and children.

Play the piano, Play on me, A B C D E F G

Rhyme & Touch Massage is a new massage technique developed especially for infants and children. Massage strokes for each part of the body are matched with fun rhyming verses. The verses eliminate the need to count strokes or watch the clock. The soothing words of the rhymes and the strokes encourage relaxation and trust, and gradually enable children to drift peacefully to sleep.

If your tummy feels blue, All you have to do, Is a windshield wipe, From the left to the right.

A downloaded MP3 file of the verses makes them easy to learn. The book includes the verses and instructions on how to do each massage stroke. With rhymes such as Telephone, Clock, Five Little Tubes of Toothpaste, and Kisses, you child will be intrigued and eager to get their nightly massage! Children of all ages love being massaged. Bedtime will become a treat for everyone in the family.

Review submitted by ILCA Print and Multimedia Reviews December 2009 – Available at www.ILCA.org Lullaby Massage: Rhyme & Touch Massage for Infants and Children Sybil L Hart, PhD Hale Publishing, 2009 39 pages, illustrated, (US)$14.95 plus world zone shipping rates, spiral bound, softcover Orders: Hale Publishing, LP, 1712 N. Forest Street, Amarillo, TX 79106 USA Tel: 806-376-9900; fax: 806-376-9901 URL: www.ibreastfeeding.com This book, like human touch, is beautifully simple in organization, layout and format. Every phrase of a teaching paragraph begins with positive wording, to encourage and instruct the reader. Questions that readers might ask are emboldened and spaced apart from the 3-to-4 line answers. Beacons of inspiration are cited, including Tiffany Field, PhD, who conducted groundbreaking research showing the healing impact of touch at any age and for anyone, from premature infants to the aged and from the sick to the well. All the essentials of massage are displayed in this book. Massage is always right, anywhere, anytime. All that is required are two people and permission. One can aim for a sacred space, a sanctuary; or make that sanctuary in any space or at any time. Directions are provided. Twelve poems are titled to go with each pattern of massage. The instruction for each poem is on the other side of the fold. Each page features pen-and-ink drawings of the specific style of touch for that page. Being spiral bound, the book lays flat, making it easy to use. A bonus, courtesy of our technological age, is the website where MP3 files of the rhymes can be downloaded. The author chants the rhymes over new-age background music. The only reservation is the introductory comment on the purpose of this work being to “help infants and children fall asleep.” There are more reasons than that to massage! An infant massage instructor for years, I found this book to contain everything I hope to provide in my classes. It has also awakened me to other ways of teaching. I am thinking of playing my bodhran to the rhymes for my next class. Lullaby Massage could be that special great gift for a new family. Nikki Lee RN, MS, IBCLC Elkins Park, PA 19027 USA..
