Redge is worried about leading his team, the Quizzical Quizzards, in the Folktale Forest’s upcoming trivia tournament. His tossing and turning troublesome dreams release the glittering Night Mare who clomps and stomps its way into the waking world. He and Jonathan call upon Hesper, the Fairy of the Evening Star, and her trusty moth companion, Vesper for help. Together they saddle up and unleash their sleepy time power and calming exercises to lure the Night Mare back into a sweet dream once again.

This episode includes the lullaby, Any Dream You Dream Of, by Molly Murphy.

It highlights how sleep is essential for one’s overall health and well-being. There are examples of bedtime routines that can signal to bodies and minds that it’s time to wind down, including a bedtime story, listening to calming music, or practicing gentle yoga or stretching exercises.
