Sleepy Bear: A Mindful Bedtime Journey
By Gramma Zanna
Come snuggle in close, let your busy thoughts slow,
Let’s turn into bears as we breathe soft and low…
Say goodnight the mindful way with Sleepy Bear, a gentle rhyming story that invites children to become a sleepy bear preparing for sleep. Written by the imaginative and nurturing Gramma Zanna, this cozy bedtime book blends active meditation, breathwork, and guided imagery into a calming wind-down ritual that helps kids relax and rest.
With each soothing rhyme, little ones stretch, yawn, breathe, and imagine their furry paws, big bear bellies, and cozy dens—quieting their minds and calming their bodies from the inside out.
Perfect for:

  • Bedtime mindfulness routines
  • Helping kids relax and fall asleep
  • Gentle introductions to meditation and breathwork

With bear-like deep breaths and a sleepy bear yawn,
Your little one's worries will soon be all gone.
They’ll cuddle up warm in their own little lair,
Drifting to dreamland as a soft, sleepy bear…
Let your child unwind the Gramma Zanna way—with rhyme, love, and the magic of imagination.
