Ep 992. Clearing the Stage: a bedtime story with guided meditation for kids

Britney wants to perform for her grandmother, but her stage is dirty!

Narrator: Male

Story Begins: 4:30

Clearing the Stage Excerpt:

In Britney’s music class, they’d been learning a song about a dancing frog. As she colored, Britney hummed the tune softly to herself. Britney’s picture showed a bright green frog wearing a sunny yellow tutu, hopping from one lily pad to another. She added some blue music notes floating in the air as a final touch. Perfect!

Britney looked at her picture with a big, proud smile. Satisfied with how it turned out, Britney stood up and laid it on the table. She started to sing the song louder now. She wiggled her fingers and began to hop across the rug. Hop, hop, hop, just like the frog in her picture.
