This adorable board book encourages toddlers to mimic the bedtime behaviors of animals both familiar and exotic. Little ones are encouraged to be drowsy meerkats, tired koalas, and weary walruses. These simple, engaging prompts help children relieve bedtime stress and develop a mind-body connection.
We read this every night before bed now and my daughter actually yawns along with the sleepy koalas. The board pages are thick enough that she can flip them herself without tearing anything.
The walrus page gets my son every time, he yawns on cue now. Sturdy board book too, survived being chewed and tossed off the crib more than once.
The page where they pretend to be weary walruses gets my two-year-old yawning every single time, which honestly feels like a magic trick at bedtime. Sturdy board book too, so it's surviving the enthusiastic page-flipping.
