Shelly & The Can-Do Kids - SAMSON (sleep)

Samson can’t sleep. He has ‘going to bed dread’. He just can’t get comfortable, and he can’t relax his mind. Sleep, which used to be easy, has suddenly become hard. He’s feeling tired all the time and struggling to find the energy to do the things he normally does with ease. Join him and Shelly in this short, gentle, sleep-time story. Shelly just LOVES sleep! She has loads of tips and ideas to help Samson find the deep rest he so craves. What happens when we sleep? Why is it so important? Does sleep just happen, or do you have to work for it? Listen to find out.

Highlights include - harmonising hedgehogs, ‘Sleep’ talking and a melodious lullaby from the compost-heap.
