My toddler actually starts mimicking the "stiffen your arms, then relax" pages before bed now, which is a miracle. The board book is sturdy enough to survive being thrown during a protest.

The breathing exercises at the end have become our go-to for calming down after bath time. My toddler loves pointing at the sloth on each page as we go through the routine.

My kid actually tried the muscle relaxation technique on page three and went still for a solid minute before asking to read it again. The board book pages are sturdy enough for toddler grabs, which is a huge plus.

We've been using this for a few nights now and the way it teaches the progressive muscle relaxation is genius—my daughter actually starts yawning by the third page. The board book format is sturdy enough for her to hold on her own.

My toddler actually asks to read this before bed now—the relaxation technique is subtle enough that she just thinks it's a fun story. The sturdy board pages hold up well to her excited page-turning, and I've noticed she settles down noticeably faster than with our usual bedtime books.

The breathing exercises at the end of the book helped my son settle down after his bath tonight, and he asked to read it again tomorrow. For a board book, the pages are sturdy enough to survive his enthusiastic turning.

My toddler actually lies still during the bedtime story now—that muscle relaxation bit works wonders after a busy day. The board book pages are sturdy enough for him to turn himself, which is a huge plus.
