Hush, Little Hill — printable bedtime picture book (ages 2-5)
A slow-and-sleepy bedtime story. On Little Hill, when the sun slips down, the wind begins to hum. Sway… hush. Sway… hush.

When the sun slips down behind Little Hill, the wind begins to hum — sway… hush, sway… hush. One by one the tall grass, Ember the fox, Clover the rabbit, big Bramble the bear and Olive the owl rock slower and slower, until even the Moon pulls up a cloud and closes his eyes. Every page repeats one gentle rhythm and slows it a little more, with soft breathe-in, breathe-out cues along the way. A calming wind-down story for ages 2–5, made for the last few minutes before sleep.
