Hello, I'm Cheryl, and this is Sleep Tight Relax, a calming bedtime show for the young and young at heart.

In our story, Oliver, a forgetful boy living on a Canadian farm, learns about responsibility

when Santa leaves him a list of forgotten tasks instead of presents.

After a special Christmas at his grandfather's house, where he finds the items he wished for,

Oliver understands the importance of giving and being responsible.

He starts doing his chores without being reminded and becomes more attentive and helpful.

Before we listen to our story, let's get cozy and comfortable.

You can close your eyes if you like.

Let's take a moment for some deep belly breaths.

Take a slow deep breath in through your nose.

As big a breath as you can and as slow as you can.

Then slowly let the air out through your mouth.

Try it again.

Take a deep breath in and let the air slowly flow out.

Take a deep breath in and now out.

It always feels great to just focus on your breath.

Continue practicing your belly breaths as long as you like while we share our story.

chickens, and a young kind boy named Oliver.
