Why Do We Yawn?
A bedtime story for curious kids, and the perfect sleepy question. Aaah, haaa, but why on earth do we yawn at all, exactly? And why is it that the very moment one single person yawns, everybody else nearby suddenly feels the irresistible urge to yawn right along with them? Marin and Plume set off, wide-eyed and curious, in search of the answer. All along the way, and after a good many very catching yawns of their very own, our two explorers slowly learn a soothing little truth. A yawn is a soft and gentle signal. It is the body's quiet, kindly way of letting you know that the time has finally come to slow down, to settle, and to rest. There is nothing at all to fight against, it is simply a sleepy little hello. The more they talk about yawning, the more they yawn, and so, very likely, will everyone listening along. They cannot help but join in, yawning wider and wider, until the whole investigation turns deliciously sleepy. The sleepier they grow, the more certain they become that this is one mystery best solved tucked up in bed. By the time they finally do have their answer, Marin and Plume are both feeling pleasantly drowsy, their eyelids growing heavier and heavier, and the whole story has gently lowered itself toward sleep, the very way a long, slow yawn always seems to do. This is a cosy, curious discovery story that is absolutely just right for the slow, quiet moment just before nap time or bed. Be warned, plenty of yawns are very nearly guaranteed. It is a cosy little story made on purpose for the sleepiest, slowest moment of the whole day. Drowsy and warm by careful design, it is the kind of story that does half the work of bedtime for you, easing a little one softly off toward sleep. A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, perfect at bedtime or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully.
