  • Sweet Pickles: a bedtime meditation and story
    Mia and Max help their grandma and grandpa prepare the vegetables from the garden. Before long the beets and cucumbers are sweet pickles!
    Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new story this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Please enjoy “Sweet Pickles” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!
    Narrator: Female
    Sweet Pickles Excerpt:
    Mia blinked and slowly opened her eyes. It had been a lovely nap.  She stretched and looked over at her brother.  “Max? Are you awake?”
    Max slowly sat up and stretched.  “Of course.” he said with a yawn.
    “Well, I’m going to see what we can do with grandpa and grandma.” She paused. “Do you smell that?  I smell something sweet.”
    “So do I!”  Max said. “I wonder what it is?”
    Max and Mia quickly hopped out of their beds and headed to the kitchen, where they found grandpa running the beets they had picked under cool water.
    “Are you ready to help pickle the beets?” He asked.
    “And the cucumbers?” said grandma.
    “Yes!” Both Max and Mia exclaimed.
    “OK, I’ve boiled the beets, and now I’m cooling them. After you wash your hands, we’ll peel them.”

  • 412. Train Game: a bedtime meditation and story
    James is sad that it's too rainy to play at the park. But Julia has an idea for a super-fun indoor game.

    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 7:39

    Narrator: Male
    Train Game Excerpt:
    It was a Sunday afternoon in deep summer, and James longed to be outside playing at the park. He pressed his nose up against the front window, looking out at the park across the street. If he looked carefully, he could see the playground in the distance.

    But there was to be no playing in the park today. On Friday evening, there was a big thunderstorm. Mom’s phone buzzed several times that evening to warn people about the severe weather. James was scared about the buzzing at first, but Mom explained that he didn’t need to be afraid. It was actually good that the phone was buzzing, because that way, everyone could know that it wasn’t safe to go outside and play!

    But, all day long on Saturday, it had rained, and rained, and rained. And now it was still raining! Even if it stopped raining right now, James knew he couldn’t go to the park today no matter what. Mom said the park would be too muddy and would need to dry out for a couple of days.

    James sighed again, even louder. Then he “harrumphed” a little bit. This made his sister, Julia, who was sitting on the couch, look up.

    “What’s wrong, James?”

    “You know what’s wrong! It’s raining and we can’t go to the park!” James exclaimed. “I think it’s never going to stop raining and we won’t ever get to go to the park again because it’ll be all flooded forever!”

    “That’s silly,” Julia said. “It’s going to stop sometime and then everything will dry up.”

    James sniffled a little and rubbed his eyes. “But I really wanted to play with you at the park today.”

    Julia got up off the couch, and walked over to James by the window. She gave him a hug.

    “I know, I want to play there, too. But I have an idea for a game we can play inside. Do you want to play with me?”
    Today’s Meditation: Feel your body fill with warmth and love as you send your loving energy to the world.

  • 131. Digging Up Fun! a mindful bedtime story
    Scotty the sand scoop meets Dragon. As they are busy digging up fun, Dragon leaves some magic with the scoop. How will the kids respond?
    Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new story “Best Friends" this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Digging Up Fun!” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!
    Narrator: Male
    Digging Up Fun! Excerpt:
    The little sand scoop said, “Hi! Want to play?” as he waved his bucket. The gentle dragon smiled broadly and sat down next to Scotty’s seat.  A little unsure how the sand scoop worked, the dragon tried moving the levers.  With one lever the little sand scoop, extended his bucket and dipped it into the sand.  With the other lever the dragon lifted the bucket up and turned.  Then, as the dragon tipped the bucket, all the sand flowed back down.  The dragon smiled, and so did Scotty scoop.  They played and played.
    Suddenly the dragon’s ears stood straight up, listening intently.  The little yellow scoop could hear giggling in the distance. Scotty felt excited! The children were coming! He was sure that the kids would love to meet the dragon.  Before he could say anything, the dragon quickly disappeared into the forest.  Oh well, the scoop thought, maybe the dragon would stay and play another time.
    The children reached the sand box, and a little boy hopped onto Scotty’s seat.  He immediately started to move the levers, scooping and dumping the sand.  He turned the seat so that Scotty’s bucket dipped into the sand on one side and then turned to dump the sand on the other.  Back and forth Scotty swiveled. Then the boy stopped and asked the others, “Does the scoop look different today? I think it might have some magic in it.”
    Today’s Meditation: Draw gentle shapes in the soothing sand as you prepare for today's story.

  • 391. Relaxing Rain: a bedtime story and meditation
    Dragon still doesn't like loud storms, but the kids share some helpful ways to cope!

    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 7:39

    Narrator: Male
    Relaxing Rain Excerpt:
    Dragon giggled as Allie chased and Julia and James scattered. They were busy playing tag at the park as more and more clouds filled the sky. Even though they played under the bright warm sun, the distant sky grew darker and darker. Dragon zigged and zagged to keep from being tagged, when a low rumble echoed in the distance. Dragon stopped, ears up and alert. Noticing the dark sky approach, Dragon quickly zipped into the tunnel slide and curled into a ball.

    Concerned Allie, James, and Julia rushed over to the slide.

    “Dragon? Are you OK?” Allie asked.

    Dragon looked up at the kids, thinking maybe the thunder had passed. Then another rumble rippled across the sky. Dragon’s eyes opened wide and Dragon hugged tighter.

  • 130. The Train Tunnel: a soothing kid’s story when you need a break
    Today's task for the construction crew is to build a train tunnel, but there are trees in the area. How will they get their job done while taking care of the trees?
    Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new story “Something Nice” and this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “The Train Tunnel” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!
    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 6:24

    Narrator: Female
    The Train Tunnel Excerpt:
    Then the Contractor walked out to the construction crew.  “OK everyone.” He paused.  “We have an important job today.  We’re responsible for making a tunnel for the new train.  It’s going to go under the forest.  While we work, we need to take care and watch for the forest animals, it’s their home.  Ellie, you will be in charge of digging a trench. Take your time.  We want to be safe.  Danny, I want you to haul away the dirt Ellie is digging.  Then you’ll bring gravel back to the trench. Ellie will help spread the gravel out.  Ronald and Dizzy we’ll call you when we’re ready for you. Ronald, we’ll need your help, packing the gravel in nice and tight for a solid foundation.  And Dizzy, you will pour the concrete when the forms are ready.  Let’s make sure it stays nicely mixed.  You can both wait here until we’re ready. This project may take a few days so we need to be patient.  Any questions?   This is going to be a fantastic tunnel! OK! Let’s go!”

    With that, the team drove out to their site and got right to work.  Ellie noticed that the trees lined both sides of the area, and knew she would need to be careful of their roots.  Ellie looked at the posts telling her where she should dig and then up at the trees.  It seemed like the posts were a safe distance from the trees. Still, Ellie wanted to be careful. The little excavator knew some of those oaks were over 100 years old, and she wanted to protect them.
    Today’s Meditation: Relax in the grass as you imagine sunlight warming you from head to toe.

  • 400. Bot Basics: a mindful children’s tale
    Roly the Robot is happy that Billy and Emily figure out how to communicate with her.

    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 7:51

    Narrator: Male
    Bot Basics Excerpt:
    Light filled the living room as the curtains opened. The little robot charging on the table opened her eyes. Feeling refreshed and full of energy, Roly slid off the charger. She hoped the kids had time to play today. Roly wanted to learn more.

    The little robot looked over to the quiet tablet, and then towards the sound of laughter spilling out of the hallway. From the sound of it, Roly figured the happy kids were coming her way. As she listened to Billy and Emily talking, the little robot looked back at the tablet, still sitting peacefully. Roly wished she could understand what the kids were saying without a translator.

    Billy and Emily rushed over to the table. Billy picked up the tablet and said, “Good morning, Roly!” as he typed.

    Roly smiled as the tablet translated his greeting and then she replied, through the tablet, “Good morning!”

    Billy looked at his sister and said, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could talk directly to Roly and Roly could understand us, without this tablet?”

  • 129. Growing Up: a calming story and meditation
    Sachi, a little snake, is feeling irritatble today and snaps at his friends. With a little help from Dragon, Sachi learns he is just growing up!
    Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new story, “Colorful Crayons” this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Growing Up” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!
    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 11:05

    Narrator: Male
    Growing Up Excerpt:
    A calm breeze circled Sachi Snake, and the little snake sighed. Slowly, Sachi slipped through the flowers and leaves, looking for a place to rest.  The little snake looked a bit faded.  His usual deep green appeared a bit gray.  The patterns on his skin had disappeared.  His bright yellow stripe looked white.  Even the sparkle in his eyes seemed clouded over.

    As Sachi searched, he heard a cheerful voice.

    “Hi Sachi!”  It was Freddie Frog hopping alongside of him.  “How are you?”

    Sachi stopped and said flatly, “Hi Freddie.  Ehh, I’m OK I guess.”

    “Hi, Freddie! Hi Sachi!”  Tad and Tanner had hopped up. Once he could see everyone’s lips, Tad said. “We’re on our way to the pond. Want to come?”  Tad watched for their responses.  Freddie looked right at Tad and said, “That sounds like fun!  What do you think Sachi?”

    Sachi turned his head away, and mumbled, “No thanks.”

    “Sachi, Tad can’t hear you. It helps to look at him when you talk, so he knows what you said.” Tanner reminded the little snake.

    So Sachi turned towards Tad and said, “The pond is cold and slimy.  I’d rather do something else.”  And with that, the little snake hurried away.

    Tad, Tanner, and Freddie felt surprised. Their friend usually acted friendly.  They wondered what was wrong with Sachi as they hopped off to the pond.  Sachi wondered what was wrong too.  He felt itchy and uncomfortable.

  • 392. Colorful Crayons: a bedtime meditation and story
    Colorful crayons rest in their container. Soon they begin to slide out onto the table. What masterpieces will the crayons help create today?

    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 7:18

    Narrator: Male
    Colorful Crayons Excerpt:
    “I wonder what we’ll help create today.” Soon all the crayons awakened, eager to do their part in creating today’s art.

    As the crayons murmured excitedly, one of the kids picked up the box and turned it sideways, gently sliding the crayons out of their bed and onto the table.

    “Whee!” Yellow giggled as she tumbled out.

    Green laughed as he rolled across the table, only stopped by the pad of paper.

    Blue jumped out of the container shouting, “Let’s go!” while Violet held on to the edge of the box, not wanting to leave her comfy bed. It took a little shake for her to leave the warm container, followed by Brown and Black, who had been waiting for Violet so they could join the fun. Now that all the crayons were out, they all took a deep dragon breath, in and out (deep breath) as they waited to see what they would be creating today.

    Dragon Train Excerpt:
    With a determined look the dragon stepped outside the cave. Tonight, the dragon was going to find out what the train did. A soft Hmmm filled the air and the dragon new the train was arriving. So, the dragon extended its wings and caught the wind, gracefully lifting up off the ground.  Once again, the dragon followed the train to the beach. Following the train as it continued on past the beach, the dragon waved at Paula the blue penguin, and Benji the bucket. Then the train began to slow down, more and more until it stopped. The dragon also glided to a stop, hovering above the train, and closely observing.

    There was a whoosh sound, and people began to pour out of the train.  The dragon looked to see where they were coming from, and noticed the train had doors on each segment.  Once some people were off, more people stepped on.  The curious dragon grew excited as the train began to humm again.  Then slowly it started to move.  As the train rolled along the air grew colder, and the land looked white.  The train tracks began to slope down, until the track sat right on top of the land, no longer elevated.

    Roly the robot want to learn more but first she needs to be able to talk to Billy and Emily. Roly is looking forward to having a cheerful chat!

    Final 3 Dragon Breaths: 8:13

    Narrator: Female
    Cheerful Chat Excerpt:
    At that moment the kids hurried back to the table. They seemed to have a plan. Roly listened intently as Emily picked up the tablet smiling. Billy smiled too as he placed his favorite green train down in front of the robot. Roly felt a cozy warmth fill her head as she heard. “This is a toy train.”

    “Interesting…” she thought absorbing every detail of the item in front of her. Billy moved the train across the table from them. Then the robot felt warmth fill her head again, as she heard the tablet whisper “Move to the train.”

    The little robot rolled over to the train. Then she decided to see if the tablet would deliver a message from her to Billy and Emily.

    Roly thought about what she would like to say. Once she had decided, the little robot thought about how the tablet communicated with her. Roly had noticed a friendly warmth in her head just before she heard the tablet speak. Roly wondered if that was how they communicated.
