The bedtime story

The Rainbow-Lemonade Adventure

A bedtime story in three parts, with two songs inside it

β€œSee you in Takatuka Land… after the rainbow bridge.”

The Goodnight Star has lost its bedtime sparkle. To help it, Tako and the little dream traveller must gather three gentle things: one giggle, one soft marshmallow, and one sleepy wish.

Listen from the beginning, or read along while it plays. It ends the way a bedtime story should.

Read along from the start

The three gentle things

The Goodnight Star has lost its bedtime sparkle. Tako knows what brings it back. He carries three little bottles, and each one has to be filled somewhere else in Takatuka Land.

  • A giggle

    The flowers in Giggle Grove have hundreds. They forgot what was funny, so you have to remind them.

    Tickle the Giggle Grove
  • Something soft

    A marshmallow from the falls. It will not be grabbed. Hold your hands open and let it land.

    Catch a marshmallow
  • A kind wish

    Said out loud on the unicorn bench, quietly, about somebody else. That is the whole trick.

    Whisper a wish

    A grove that forgot what was funny, and a marshmallow you can only catch by being gentle.

    The Goodnight Star

    The unicorn bench, a wish whispered out loud, and a little star that remembers how to shine.

There is one more song than the story lets on.
