The time before bed is special and severely undervalued by many parents. It's the most gentle close to the day and a golden window for a child's mind to be nourished. All the unfulfilled curiosity, unanswered questions, joyful triumphs, and tiny disappointments from their day are waiting for a gentle outlet.
And all the sights, sounds, thoughts, and feelings they've accumulated throughout the day are waiting to be sorted and consolidated, to save new information into long-term memory and pack away unnecessary thoughts.
All of this can happen under the soft glow of a gentle light, simply by saying, "Welcome to the Goodnight Planet." Listening to the stories of the Goodnight Planet then begins a wonderful bedtime journey.
