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

I am so happy that you joined us for our latest story.

We moved this summer, which makes it the second time we have moved in the past five years.

Our first move was a big one, moving halfway around the world. This time, it was not

nearly as far. Instead of a 24-hour journey by plane, it was just 45 minutes by car. Before our recent move, we would record all our stories in our office, located amongst

art galleries, restaurants, cafes, and a chocolate store. Now, while there is a cafe nearby

and an ice cream shop up the street, we record our episodes

near woods full of raccoons, skunks, squirrels, a cranky gray cat, and even a great big bald eagle.

Moving is a big change, bringing new challenges and experiences with it, which help us grow and

have new fun.

The next time you have to do something new that might bring about change, perhaps you can think about it like this.

Change is like planting a tiny seed that grows into a beautiful flower.

Even if it feels different or scary at first, change can help us grow, learn new things, and have wonderful experiences

we've never imagined before. In our story, we are going to visit the cozy town of Hughes Town,

where every color has its own special place, and its citizens love their

predictable, colorful world. But what happens when one day all of Hughes Town wakes up to a surprise

that paints their lives in a whole new way?

But first, let's take some time to get cozy and comfortable.

Turn down your lights and your room should be free from distractions.

You may want to pull your covers up tight so that you feel warm and protected. If it helps, you can cuddle with a stuffed friend or even your pillow.

Of course, if you don't feel like lying down, you can sit cross-legged or lie down on your back wherever you feel comfortable.

Close your eyes if you'd like, and let's get ready to use our imagination and take some great big belly breaths.
