So if your child has an entourage of imaginary companions don’t despair that they are disturbed or worried about something. Imaginative children were more likely to have parents who valued imagination, curiosity, adventurousness and creativity. Often they take the form of real characters from television or film in particular super heroes.Ĭharles Schaefer found that teachers of adolescents reported that their most creative pupils had imaginary friends as young children. Imaginary friends are more prevalent amongst only or first born children and they can help children to solve dilemmas. They found that parents reported that children with imaginary friends were largely happier and more verbal than those children who did not have imaginary friends and that the children were not shy. The book also discusses their research into imaginary friends.

You could help children to have the power to conquer their fears by capitalising on this imagination and asking them to suggest what the monster might be afraid of and making a concrete object to represent it. Their fears also begin to change from concrete things like dogs or vacuum cleaners to abstract concepts such as monsters. Children are starting to replace physical objects for mental images, for example they can derive comfort from the thought of a teddy bear in addition to the physical object. This also signals the beginning of abstract thought.

When my eldest daughter was around 3 she had an imaginary friend ‘Piglet’ from Winnie the Pooh. This story made me think about the connection between the whole monster obsession and imaginary friends. There are also 3 ogres that live in the cubby hole with them – they scare away monsters. When I questioned her about it further she said that there were 3 bats a baby (with her baby sister’s name) a daddy (with her daddy’s name) and a mummy called Rachel. There is a small cubby hole in her bedroom where the stairs cut in for our loft conversion – the bat lives in here. She has also started talking about a bat that lives in her bedroom. I was fairly sure that this was a developmental stage connected with how young children make sense of the world.

My 2 year old has recently become pre-occupied with monsters, sometimes she is a monster, sometimes there is a monster in the room but she mentions them at least once a day.
