The ABC Kids Listen Podcast

There are lots of reasons why we sleep. Our bodies have a clock that makes us awake in the day and asleep at night. When the sun goes down, our brains make a special messenger. Melatonin tells our body to get ready for sleep. Stage one of sleep is light and relaxing. Stage two is deeper. It's when our thoughts and feelings from the day are stored and stored away. To heal. So you feel better. And even to help us fight germs. We have to sleep each and every night. For more podcasts to play, music to move, and stories and soundtracks for sleep, download the ABC Kids Listen app.
