Mothers Now Have Instant Relaxation Option to Help with Stressful Parenting Moments

Award winning lullaby CD proving beneficial for calming stress and tension in parents and kids alike.

Omaha, NE (PRWEB) April 22, 2008 -- Mothers who feel stressed or frazzled from the trials and constant noise associated with raising kids have a new option for fast relaxation and stress debriefing with Stardust, an award- winning 2-disc lullaby CD which has garnered praise for its relaxation-inducing qualities.

Created by sibling singer/songwriters Cher & Gene Klosner and Audible Chocolate Productions, Stardust has attracted attention for its soothing composition, authentic instrumentation and beautifully blended vocals. Stardust has proven to be a beneficial component for helping children relax during quiet time or in preparation for bed while also offering soothing properties for parents who need to unwind.

Rhonda Dunaway, founder of MomsofOmaha.com acclaimed, "As a result of having been ill a great deal of the winter, my six-year-old son recently developed some sleep problems. Because there were so many times when he had awakened in the middle of the night with fevers, stomach upset, etc., he had become very nervous about bedtime. When I asked our pediatrician what I could do to help him relax, she suggested that we start playing some soothing music starting at dinner and continuing throughout the evening up until bedtime. I had previously bought a copy of (Cher & Gene Klosner's) Stardust to give to someone as a baby gift, but after I heard the doctor's advice, I decided to break the CD out of its wrapper and give it a try with our son. It worked like a charm. Aidan has gone to sleep promptly every evening since we began playing the CD. "

Dunaway added, " Listening to the CD every evening has really changed the mood and the pace in our household. During the first evening we played the CD, Aidan kept saying, 'Mom, that music is making me sleepy.' And I kept thinking, 'Great!' My husband and I enjoy listening to Stardust, and we find it as relaxing as Aidan does. In fact, the next time I have a bout of insomnia, I'm going to listen to the CD before I go to sleep."

Lisa Otto, mother of a high-needs child in Wisconsin related that Stardust has been instrumental in helping calm tension and stress, "My son finds Stardust extremely beneficial for helping him relax and focus on homework or getting ready for bed. It also helps me calm down when I might otherwise get wound-up by my son's behavior."

Stardust recently received a coveted "iParenting Media Award - Best Products 2008 - Audio," and participated in CNBC's "The Big Idea" with Donny Deutsch earlier this year. With multiple awards, recognition by parent magazines and glowing reviews from parenting and music review websites, Stardust has reached celebrity status as a must-have CD for families.

Stephanie Mondrut, music reviewer for "Hear It, Love It, Share It", a prominent music review blog, raved about Stardust, "…this album exceeds all expectations I could ever even think to have for a lullaby CD. They even have an instrumental version of each song, as if the album weren't perfect enough!" In addition, leading music reviewers Phil Corless of "A Family Runs Through It" and Chip Withrow of "Muses Muse" offered Stardust accolades as an exceptional musical choice. Corless acclaimed, "Stardust just happens to be one of the best lullaby collections I've ever heard… This is one of the keepers. It gets the highest recommendation…!" Withrow acknowledged, "... it is a tapestry of gorgeous sounds, a welcome musical respite. And you don't have to have tired kids to listen to it."
