What is Time for bed about?
As evening settles and the sky grows dark, animal parents gently prepare their little ones for sleep. A mouse, calf, foal, fish, sheep, bird, bee, snake, pup and deer each receive a loving goodnight before closing their eyes. With warm cuddles, sleepy yawns and soothing rhymes, the animals drift off one by one. At last, a human child is tucked into bed too, making this a peaceful bedtime journey for little listeners.
