The (Not So) Haunted Pumpkin - A Mindful Bedtime Story for Kids

From the podcast Wink: Stories for Better Bedtimes

·18:37
This playful adventure follows a brave little old lady who outsmarts three hungry animals with calm courage, quick thinking, and a little help from her clever granddaughter. Packed with laugh-out-loud repetition, memorable sound effects, and a surprising pumpkin twist, it's a story that keeps children guessing until the very end. It celebrates bravery, resilience, and the idea that sometimes the smartest solution is also the most unexpected. Hey parents, here are 4 ways to build attachment as you listen to the story together: 1.) Repeat the words of the song with your child. 2.) Do the breathing exercise with your child. 3.) Model for your child crossing your arms and puttig your hand on opposite shoulders. 4.) Model moving in a circular motion.
