Moon Child: A Mindful Bedtime Story for Kids
About this episode
Laying outside under the night sky, three young children find 1, 2, 3 animals in the dark by connecting the bright stars. But hard as he tries, the fourth little one can't see the pictures!--until the Moon Child and her paintbrush visit to help him make his own. There are magical things to be found when we try new things.
Parents, here are 4 powerful ways to connect with your little one during the story: 1) Listen as your child whispers something happy that has happened to them when prompted, and help them come up with an idea, if needed. 2) Whisper to your child something specific about them that makes you happy when it’s your turn. 3) Make the motions of DAB DAB DAB and SWISH SWISH SWISH towards the ceiling to make your child’s happy moment come to life just like the Moon Child. 4) Tap, tap, tap your fingers gently on the child’s toes, legs, tummy and arms when the silver sprinkles fall from the sky.
