01:03Well, we have to clean up because it's time for bed.
01:07I want to play trains all night.
01:10Herbie, we all need sleep.
01:13So we have energy to play tomorrow.
01:16Oh, yeah. Herbie fell asleep and we haven't done our bedtime routine yet.
01:22Can you help me wake him up?
01:25Okay, on the count of three, let's say, wake up, Herbie.
01:30One, two, three. Wake up, Herbie.
01:35Is it tomorrow yet?

02:10No, that's so silly.
02:12Can you help Herbie remember?
02:15Let's sing our bedtime routine song.
02:20We take a nice warm bath.

02:33Yay! Can you help Herbie remember what's first in the bedtime routine?
02:41Yeah. Take a nice warm bath.
02:46Miss Rachel, can we play with blocks instead of taking a bath?
02:51It's time for a bath, but you can play with toys in the bath.
02:56You could play with your really fun boat toy. Okay.
02:59Your boat. Yeah.
03:02Do you want a bubble bath or a regular bath? Bubble bath.
03:07Ooh, that will be fun. I like bubbles.
03:10Let's go.
03:20Turn the ship, bend the hatches.
03:24Whatever that means. This is fun.
03:28Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream.
03:32Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.
03:36Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream.
03:40Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.
03:44Herbie, I love your singing. Thank you.
03:47Next, can you wash your hair? Oh, yeah.
03:50This is the way I wash my hair. Wash my hair, wash my hair.
03:55This is the way I wash my hair when I take a bath.
04:01Great job. Thanks.
04:03Two more minutes in the bath, and then we're going to wrap you in a nice warm towel.
04:07Ooh, okay. Two more minutes left to play,
04:12and then we'll put the toys away.
04:16Okay, turn the ship.
04:19Whoa!

04:47Is the bee behind the b-b-bed?
04:52Yeah, the bee is behind the b-b-bed.

05:03Good job.
05:05First, Herbie took a bath. Yeah.
05:08Then, we got into our pajamas. Yeah, our PJs.

05:26Me too. All done.
05:29Herbie, that's not long enough. It's not?
05:33We have to brush our teeth for two minutes.
05:36Oh. Yeah, we have to brush all sides of our teeth
05:40to keep them strong and healthy.
05:43Yeah. Let's sing a song while we brush our teeth.
05:46Okay.
05:48Hey, do you all want to help me sing a song about brushing our teeth?
05:52Okay, let's practice.
05:54Ch-ch-ch-ch. Ch-ch-ch-ch.
05:57You got it. Let's go.
06:00When you wake up in the morning, it's a quarter to one.
06:04And you want to have a little fun.
06:07You brush your teeth. Ch-ch-ch-ch.
06:11You brush your teeth. Ch-ch-ch-ch.

07:19Great job getting into bed, Herbie.
07:22Thanks.
07:23Next, we're going to read this very special book together.
07:27Yay! I love special books.
07:29For this book, wrap up in your coziest blanket, just like Herbie.
07:34Blanket, Journey to Extreme Coziness by Lauren Prance.
07:40Oh, hello. I didn't see you there.
07:45I was too busy being warm and cozy inside my fuzziest blanket.
07:51I call this a blanket cocoon.
07:54Mmm.
07:56You might be wondering, what is a blanket cocoon?
08:00Well, let me tell you.
08:03A cocoon is a protective covering.
08:06Some insects make cocoons to have a safe place to become their grown-up selves in.
08:12Look over there. That caterpillar is about to make a cocoon.
08:17Shh. Be very quiet.
08:20Watch as the caterpillar hangs from that branch.
08:24It's making a warm and cozy cocoon.
08:27What do you think the caterpillar is doing now?
08:30Hello? Caterpillar? What's going on in there?
08:35I hope everything is okay.
08:37Oh, thank goodness. The caterpillar is okay.
08:43And now it can fly.
08:46Wow. Nature is amazing.
08:49Hmm. Would you like to be inside a blanket cocoon just like me?
08:54This way to extreme coziness.
08:59To make your very own snuggly, cuddly blanket cocoon, follow these easy steps.
09:05Step 1. Find your most favorite blanket.
09:09Step 2. Lay it out on the floor.
09:12Step 3. Lie down on the very edge of it.
09:16Step 4. Now roll!
09:20Congratulations! You are inside a warm and cozy blanket cocoon.
09:27Now that you're here, there are a lot of things you can do.
09:31You can snuggle and wiggle and feel safe and warm.
09:36You can close your eyes.
09:39And wow, look at me. I'm soaring through space.
09:44And running through the rainforest.
09:48Now I'm inside an igloo covered in snow.
09:53And under the deep blue sea.
09:59Now I'm... I'm...
10:02I'm up! I'm up! What'd I miss?
10:09What have you been doing inside your cocoon?
10:12Are you cozy and comfy? Are you wiggly and giggly?
10:16Are you snug as a bug?
10:19Uh-oh. What is going to happen when we leave our blanket cocoons?
10:24Not knowing what will happen is kind of scary.
10:28Not knowing what will happen is also kind of exciting.
10:32I wonder what I'll become. I wonder what you'll become.
10:36We could be anything. Let's see.
10:40I'm a blanket fly! Yay!
10:45What did you become? A blanket fly too?
10:48Or a blanket cat? Or a blanket bunny?
10:52Or best thing of all, the amazing you?
10:56That was a great book.
10:58Miss Rachel, I'm in my blanket cocoon.
11:01Yeah, you're so warm and safe in your cozy blanket cocoon.
11:05Yeah.
11:06Would you like your bear lovey or your bunny lovey?
11:09Bear lovey.
11:12There you go, sweetie.
11:15It's time for a special song.
11:17I wrote this song for my little boy.
11:21I love you to the moon.
11:25I love you to the stars.
11:29I love you farther than the farthest far.
11:37I love you to the moon.
11:41I love you to the clouds.
11:45I love you louder than the loudest loud.
11:53I love you to the moon.
11:57I love you to the sun.
12:01You'll always be my precious little one.
12:10You'll always be my precious little one.
12:21It's time to go to sleep now.
12:23Okay.
12:26It's time to be calm now.
12:29Let's take a deep breath.
12:32It's time to be calm now.
12:36Let's take a deep breath.
12:42You can take deep breaths and even count backwards from 20 to help you fall asleep.
12:48Good night.
12:49I love you.
12:52Turn off the light.
12:54Sweet dreams.
12:56Good night, Herbie.
12:58I'm thankful for the stars that light the sky.
13:14I'm thankful I can watch and wonder why.
13:22I'm thankful for stories and piggybacks on dad.
13:30I'm thankful that he hugs me when I'm sad.
13:38I'm thankful for the playground where I play.
13:42I'm thankful making music with a friend.
13:46I'm thankful for the dog I'll get someday.
13:51The thank yous never end.
13:53I'm thankful for swimming, skating, climbing up a tree,
14:01and teachers who said they'd believe in me.
14:08And wind blowing the leaves that change in the fall.
14:19My thank yous are big for things that are small.
14:33I'm thankful for the children everywhere.
14:41I'm thankful for my blanket and my bear.
14:49I'll dream about tomorrow and all the things we'll do.
14:57I'm thankful for the time I spend with you.
15:11Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle.
15:22The cow jumped over the moon.
15:25The little dog laughed to see such fun.
15:29And the dish ran away with the spoon.
15:32Do you want to sing one of my favorite lullabies with me?
15:37Awesome! Let's give it a go.
15:40This one's called Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
15:45Wait, you know it?
15:48Okay, I want to hear you sing. Ready?
15:52Twinkle twinkle little star,
16:01how I wonder what you are.
16:06Up above the world so high,
16:10like a diamond in the sky.
16:15Twinkle twinkle little star,
16:20how I wonder what you are.
16:26I think I'm ready for bed now. Good night.
16:35It's time to meet one of Miss Rachel's wonderful friends and see her bedtime routine.
16:41This is Miss Rachel's friend Alice.
16:44Can you say hi to Alice? Hi Alice!
16:48Alice is a four-year-old girl who loves animals, music, and shoes.
16:54Her favorite color is red.
16:57Alice had a busy day today and did lots of fun things.
17:01She played with her doll,

23:05piano plays softly
23:17When the sun turns down
23:23We lay down to sleep
23:28When the day is done
23:34You might start to dream
23:39Of stars that know your name
23:44And moons that show their faces
23:50And planets made of clouds
23:55And rockets soaring past the heavens
24:01When the sun turns down
24:06We lay down to sleep
24:12When the day is done
24:17You might start to dream
24:22Of rivers flowing in less
24:28Leaning where they may
24:33Trees of laughing monkeys
24:38And tigers but they're tame
24:46Sleep, sleep and dream
24:55Sleep, sleep and dream
25:06When the sun turns down
25:12We lay down to sleep
25:17When the day is done
25:24You might start to dream
25:30The title of this book is
25:33Evie and the Dinosaur Birthday Wish.
25:37This is the front cover of the book.
25:40Evie loved dinosaurs.
25:43She loved them so much,
25:45she decided to have a dinosaur birthday party.
25:49Evie and her brother made dinosaur decorations.
25:53Evie's daddy made a green dinosaur cake.
25:57When it was time to blow out the candles,
26:00Evie closed her eyes and wished
26:02as hard as she could for a real dinosaur pet.
26:07Evie's mommy told her that dinosaurs were extinct,
26:11which means they are no longer on our planet.
26:14They have been gone for millions of years, Evie.
26:18How do you think Evie felt?
26:21I think so too. Evie felt sad.
26:25She really wanted a dinosaur pet for her birthday wish.
26:30Evie's daddy said he could dress up as a dinosaur for her birthday.
26:34That made Evie laugh.
26:36Her daddy would make a funny dinosaur.
26:39Just then, Evie had a spectacular idea.
26:44Could I get a dinosaur stuffed animal and pretend it's real?
26:49Of course, said Evie's mommy.
26:52That's a great idea.
26:55You could make a water bowl and a food bowl for your dinosaur,
27:00said Evie's brother.
27:02Evie liked that idea.
27:04She could use play food from her toy kitchen
27:07to feed her pretend dino pet.
27:11I could also make a leash for her, said Evie.
27:15What will you name your dinosaur, asked Evie's daddy.
27:19Evie thought for a minute.
27:22I'll name him Happy.
27:25Evie and her brother and her mommy and daddy smiled.
27:30They were happy too.
27:41The animals are so tired.
27:44We need to put them to sleep.
27:48I found a book.
27:51I'll read it to them.
27:54It says,
27:57Happy Birthday, Evie.
28:00Happy Birthday, Evie.
28:04Happy Birthday, Evie.
28:07Now let's put them to sleep.
28:10I found a horse and he's sleepy.
28:15He's so tired.
28:17Let's say night-night and put him in his pen.
28:20Night-night, horse.
28:22Night-night, horse.
28:27I found a sheep and she's so tired.
28:33Let's say night-night, sheep.
28:35Night-night, sheep.
28:37Night-night.
28:39Good night, sheep.
28:42Oh, it's the cow.
28:46He's so tired.
28:49I'm so tired.
28:52I want to go to sleep.
28:55Oh, wait.
28:56We gotta put you in your pen and then you can go to sleep.
29:00Night-night, cow.
29:03Going to sleep.
29:06I found the chicken.
29:11I'm so tired.
29:13It's nighttime.
29:16Yeah, the chicken's so tired, too.
29:19Let's say night-night, chicken.
29:22All the animals are ready to go to sleep because it's nighttime.
29:27Night-night, animals.
29:32Tomorrow they can have more fun, but now they need to go to sleep.
29:37Night-night, animals.
29:43I have peace in my mind.
29:47I have peace in my heart.
29:51I have peace in my mind and peace inside my heart.
