  2. Interesting! One thingn we would do is get one of those 'nature sounds' CDs for them to listen to when we wanted the kids to be calm but they wanted to move...naptimes, etc. Going to sleep to the sound of the ocean can be very soothing.

  3. I definitely don't know how white noise would be soothing to anyone, but hey, I'm sure it has worked on some babies. I personally would never try it, but music (classical especially) I think is very soothing and it worked well on my kids as babies.
