Hi, this is Libby Owens, and you're listening to the award-winning podcast, Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books. I'm also the host of Moms Don't Have Time to Lose Weight, and I'm the editor of the anthology, which you should run out and buy called Moms Don't Have Time to, a quarantine anthology. All proceeds of that book go to COVID-19 vaccine research. And I'm the editor-in-chief of moms don't have time to write a new publication on Medium.

Okay, now back to this amazing podcast.

I am obsessed with slumberkins. They're these collections

of stuffed animals and lovies that come with books. And there's so much more than that.

Slumberkins were developed by a therapist and an educator using research beast techniques to

help teach children how to understand and support their feelings.

So these are almost emotional intelligence teaching animals. My kids are just obsessed. I mean,

they fight over all of these things so much. And each one comes with a book. And in the book,

you do things like recite your feelings and learn about different emotions. There's the

caring crew of animals, the confidence crew. There's the resilience crew. It's really amazing.

They have great gifts for newborn parents. And they're giving my listeners and followers Zibby 10,

10% off your first purchase. The code is Zibby 10. So go to slumberkins.com.

Check it out. Your kids will love them. And you will love the fact that they help kids fall asleep
