Museum Mission Excerpt:
As the car rolled along, each of the friends thought about what part of the museum they were most excited for. Each of them had their own favorite area. Andy loved seeing the Brachiosaurus and the Tyrannosaurus Rex in the dinosaur exhibit and never got tired of looking at the fossils and bones in the collection. Allie usually wanted to see the airplanes and spaceships. No matter how many times she saw them, she always noticed something new she hadn’t noticed before. Owen’s favorite exhibit was all about the human body. This exhibit included interactive displays that Owen never got bored of exploring.
Today’s Meditation: Enjoy the feeling of your body relaxing into the warm sand on a sunny beach.
Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.
