Ep 1002. Colorful Sails: a children’s story and guided relaxation
Cassandra Sailboat sees some colorful triangles out on the water. What could they be?
Narrator: Female
Story Begins: 3:42
Colorful Sails Excerpt:
For a while, Cassandra just enjoyed the feeling of sailing. She listened to the water splashing against her sides, the call of distant birds, and the friendly voices of the captain and skipper as they chatted. What a beautiful morning!
Up ahead, Cassandra could see some distant shapes, but didn’t know what they were. They looked like small triangles, just barely visible above the sparkling waves. The triangles were all different colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Cassandra hoped the captain would steer her toward them. She was curious to learn what they were!
