What a Day: A mindful moment for bedtime

About this book

It’s been a wonderful day and, now, it’s time to sleep.

Beginning with waking up with the sun and eating, playing and exploring the floor and the sky, and ending with knowing that it's time to sleep: but that the little one’s parent or guardian is always with them. They are safe to drift off to sleep, knowing that they are loved and cherished always.

This is a simply worded book, using a lovely big, bold font (a plus if parents are reading this in the semi-darkness before bedtime). Yet the sentiment is lovely: reminding little ones that their adults love to spend time with them, and that they are always safe and loved. Harriet Hobday’s dreamy, painted illustrations create a feeling of rest and reflection which is perfect to help little ones off to dreamland.

With useful sleep guidance at the end of the book from baby sleep specialist Andrea Grace, this is a charming but also very useful book that parents will love.
