Making Monsters Disappear the GoodFather Way!
August 17th 2007 by Dr.MOZ in Childrens Rooms, GoodFather Fridays
Dear Dr.MOZ (and GoodFather),
I’m told by my daughter that we have a monster problem in her room, so I think we’re going to need a little of the GoodFather’s muscle to help clean house. Some say that the GoodFather is good at at making all kinds of problems “disappear”, so any suggestions relating to monsters would be greatly appreciated!
Have a great weekend,
Jake the Monster Chaser

Hello Jake,
I’ve never been particularly fond of monsters, so I’m glad you came to me with this problem. My associates and I have had a lot of luck helping friends of the family with the removal of creepy crawlies, ghouls, and even brain-sucking goblins. The following tools may work well on their own, but you might want to double-up to ward off the most vicious visitors.
Boo-Be-Gone Monster Spray by Flower Peddler is a must have monster fighting tool. Don’t let the gentle lavender and mandarin essential oil spray fool you, this potent potion packs a punch! (Available from Flower Peddler)
The OFFI My Pet Lamp HoweePup Jr is made of non-toxic oderless plastic and comes in six colors. The low voltage light creates a soft glow that monsters hate, and the washable markers allow for your little monster catcher to create her very own watch dog! (Available at Design Public)
The TykeLight Buddy by Mobi has built-in rechargeable batteries and
a safe charger base with no exposed contacts. High and low setting allow for various light-levels, and it automatically illuminates during power outages for light during emergencies. The TykeLight Buddy is safe for children of any age, but extremely dangerous for monsters who are afraid of the light! (Available at SuperMomz)
Thanks for the great question Jake and don’t forget to send me a picture of the monster once you are able to trap the little beastie!
The GoodFather
Special thanks to Cool Mom Picks for the Boo Be Gone tip!

Monsters usually come as kids are going to bed. If you tell your little one that the monsters are water creatures and the bed is an island that they can’t get to, they might just stay in bed and feel a bit safer. If not, zapp ‘em with the spray! Stuffed animals also make a really good “island patrole swat team”.
Good luck!

I think a fear of night-time monsters is quite healthy. Keeps the kids on their toes.
A quick watch of Monsters Inc. is as good a cure as any though.

If our suggested night lights and monster sprays don’t do the trick, perhaps we should take a tip from our blogging friends at the “Pinks and Blues” blog.

It looks like they fought off “nighttime gorillas” with a Gorilla Necklace. I wonder if this would work against monsters?

Interesting, im not sure what causes this but it seems most kids go through it.
