Dream Catchers
"The Plains Indians say that when you hang a dream catcher by the window or at the head of your bed, the bad dreams get caught in the web. When the morning sun hits them, the bad dreams evaporate. The good dreams then pass through the hole to the Great Spirit.
These were usually given to children from their grandparents when they were born. They are also given to people who have bad dreams and nightmares as it has been said the dream catchers helps them."
