Sweet Zzz's. Yoga bedtime storybook calms young bodies and minds

Courtesy Sounds True

If you’re all out of sleep time tricks to get your kiddo to bed, try author Mariam Gates’ remedy, “Good NightYoga: A Pose-by-Pose Bedtime Story,” (Sounds True, $17.95).

The adorably illustrated book tells the story of the natural world as it settles down for nightfall, while teaching kids a simple flow of yoga asanas inspired by their favorite characters from nature. Bright stars sparkle, as clouds drift by. Ladybugs nestle softly as birds fly back to their nests.

This restful sequence encourages listening, breathing, bending and stretching – soothing youngsters in to slumber. More empowering than the blankie ;)
