Lullaby Love
Videos about Muppets’ bedtime routines.
Lullabies are an opportunity for important “together time.” Together with children, watch these videos before bed. Then try singing one of the lullabies together (in the second video, Natasha’s dad put her name into the song; you can do the same!).
You might also:
- talk about the best parts of your days
- use a flashlight to make hand shadows on the wall
- say goodnight to all the stuffed animals or dolls in the room
- describe what you both want to dream about
- …just snuggle!
