Ibbity and the Strongest Thing: A Mindful Bedtime Story for Kids

When Ibbity sets out to find the strongest thing in the world, he meets trees, wind, hills, and tigers — each stronger than the last, but none believe they are the strongest of all. The reimagined folk tale follows Ibbity's journey which leads him to find out the truth about curiosity and the power of asking questions. Followed by a guided mindfulness activity with breathing and tapping to help little ones settle into calm. Hey parents, here are 4 ways to build attachment as you listen to the story together: 1) Point to an item in the room that answers each question. 2) Model the breathing technique for your child. 3) Use your fingers to count the breaths. 4) Tap your own chest to the rhythm to show your child what it looks like.
