My friends son was afraid of turning into a pumpkin when he was around 3!!  When my friend wanted him to go to bed - she would say "You better get some sleep or you'll turn into a pumpkin!" and the poor kid took it seriously.    Every once in a while he'd get this worried look on his face "Am I really going to turn into a pumpkin?"    Soo cute!

Recently my 3 year old son expressed fear of the "Big Bad Monkey" he claims to have seen on our deck.  No reports of missing monkeys from the local zoos.....We calmed his fears but I think the Big Bad Monkey will live in our family's memory for a long time.

My son is affraid of ceiling fans.  I was very concerned at first but his doctor seems to think its no big deal.  He's ok with them if he's just walking by them but if they are directly on top of him he freaks...

One day when my son was around three, he ran out of his room screaming hysterically that someone was trying to get into his room.  I've never seen him so scared.  It ended up being a blue jay pecking at his screen and hitting his window.  He didn't like his room for a very long time after that.
