1
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome to sleep tight Stories. Bernice is

2
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: already thinking about Valentine's Day and what she would like

3
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: to do for her friend Bobby. She talks to Papa

4
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: Bear and they make a plan for after school, but

5
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: when Bernice gets home, her plans have changed. Bernice wants

6
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: to give Bobby a Valentine Good morning cookie. Bernice said,

7
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: peeking out from under her blankets.

8
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 2: Did you have a good sleep? I feel like I did.

9
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: I slept like a log. Isn't that a funny thing

10
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 1: to say? Why would I want to sleep like a log?

11
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: Cookie came over to Bernice purring and gave her a

12
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: Headbut today is going to be a fun day at school, Cookie,

13
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: All my tests are over and the teachers won't want

14
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: to start anything super new just yet. I think we

15
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: are going to spend time creating art because it's going

16
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: to be Valentine's Day soon. Will you be my Valentine's Cookie?

17
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means, but I think it

18
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: means we give each other treats.

19
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 2: You can give me a.

20
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: Chocolate cookie and I can give you some fishy crackers,

21
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: Bernice said as she pet Cookie, which made Cookie per

22
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: even louder. Bernice, Are you awake yet, Papa Bear said

23
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: in his super deep voice from the kitchen. Sometimes when

24
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: he spoke, the house vibrated. You don't want to rush breakfast?

25
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: I guess I better get started, Cookie, It's going to

26
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: be a fun day, Bernice said as she jumped out

27
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: of bed.

28
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: After she washed, brushed her.

29
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: Teeth, and got dressed, Bernice walked downstairs to the kitchen.

30
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Good morning, little bear.

31
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: Did you sleep well, Papa Bear asked as he had

32
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: a drink of coffee. I sure did, Papa. I slept

33
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: like a rock or maybe a log. I'm not sure which.

34
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 1: I used to tell your mama that you slept like

35
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: an angel because you looked like a little angel when

36
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: you were smaller. That's silly. What do I look like now, Papa?

37
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: Do I look like an angel? Bernice asked as she

38
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: sat at the table. Hmm, maybe more like a stinky

39
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: toes princess, Papa Bear joked. Papa Bernice said with a

40
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: fake frown. What's for breakfast? I have some special porridge

41
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: for you with some honey on top. It should be

42
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: just perfect to eat right now, Papa Bear said as

43
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: he set her bowl on the table. It's pretty yummy,

44
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: Bernie said. After taking a bite, she blew on it

45
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: first to make sure it wasn't hot. Papa, can you

46
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: help me today after school? Sure?

47
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 2: Little Bear? What do you need help with?

48
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: Well, it's going to be Valentine's Day soon, and I

49
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: thought I would make something for Bobby. And I thought,

50
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: since he likes your cookies so much, we could bake

51
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: him some together, like maybe heart shaped ones or something

52
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: like that. Bernice explained, that's a good idea. I'll make

53
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: the dough before you come home, and you can help

54
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: me bake them. How does that sound super great, Papa,

55
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: I bet they will be the best cookies yet. Hi,

56
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: Papa and Cookie, I'm home, Bernice said as she came

57
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: in through the front door of their small house. Her

58
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: legs were all covered in snow as she and Ethan

59
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: decided to jump in a snowbank on the way home

60
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: from the bus stop. After stumping her feet and brushing

61
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: off her legs, Bernice sat down to take off her

62
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: stubborn snow boots. You know where I am, little bear,

63
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: Papa Bear said from the kitchen as she struggled to

64
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 1: get them off. Cookie came running around the corner to

65
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 1: greet her purring, Hi, Cookie, did you miss me today?

66
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 2: I missed you.

67
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: I saw you sitting in the window watching for me

68
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: when I walked home. Did you see Ethan and I

69
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: jump in the snowbank? It's super fun, But I guess

70
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: you wouldn't like to be an a snowbank, would you?

71
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: Cookie purred and rubbed up against Bernice's arm. After she

72
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: hung up her jacket and put away her boots, Bernice

73
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: went into the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water.

74
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: I'm super thirsty, Papa, she said, between gulps. It's easy

75
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: to get thirsty in winter. We sometimes think we don't

76
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: need to drink as much water in winter because it's

77
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: cold out, but we still need to drink. Papa Bear said,

78
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: as he prepared to help Bernice make cookies. Do you

79
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: want to tell me about your day as we make cookies?

80
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: Sitting down at the table, Bernice said, yeah, I guess so.

81
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: But maybe we don't need to make cookies after all?

82
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: Why not, little Bear? You were excited about it this morning. Well,

83
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: at school today when we talked about Valentine's Day and

84
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: how everyone was going to make Valentines to share, Bobby

85
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: said that he thought Valentine's Day was yucky and that

86
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: he didn't like getting Valentines or any of that mushy stuff.

87
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: So I guess I won't make any Bernice said with

88
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: a slightly disappointed voice. I'm sorry to hear that, little Bear,

89
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 1: not everyone agrees with or celebrates these holidays in the

90
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: same way. If giving him something might make him feel uncomfortable,

91
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: then we won't give him something. We can make and

92
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: eat them ourselves. Or I may have another idea. Do

93
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: you and Mama celebrate Valentine's Day? Bernice asked, just a

94
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 1: little bit. I like giving Mama little gifts all the time,

95
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: and she is the same, but still I try to

96
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: get her a little something. This time, I got her

97
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: a couple of delicious heart shaped chocolates. She will love

98
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: them after she goes for a run. I bet they

99
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: are super duper delicious, Bernice said, I hope. So. I

100
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: think Valentine's Day is a day to tell people that

101
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: you care about them with hugs, nice words, and sweet treats.

102
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: It's fun to make other people happy, little Bear, But

103
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: we don't need a special day to do that. We

104
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: can do that anytime we like, Papa Bear said with

105
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: a smile, so it's not just all mushy mushy stuff.

106
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: You can celebrate it any way you want. Little Bear,

107
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: I have an idea that I should have thought of

108
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: this morning. Why don't you make cookies to share with

109
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: all your classmates, not just Bobby. That way you can

110
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: show that you care about your classmates and celebrate Valentine's

111
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: Day in a way everyone can enjoy. Bet Bobby won't

112
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: turn down cookies, especially if everyone is getting them. Yeah,

113
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: he loves your cookies, Papa. I think it's a super

114
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: great idea. Can we make enough for everyone? Bernice asked.

115
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: I made so much dough that I am sure we

116
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: will have more than enough cookies for everyone. Why don't

117
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: you wash your hands, and after we make the cookies,

118
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: you can finish telling me about your day. I might

119
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: have cookies in our cookie jar from last time we

120
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: made some, Okay, Papa Bernice and Papa Bear took a

121
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: heart mold and together they filled four cookie sheets with cookies,

122
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: put them in the oven, and sat at the kitchen

123
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 1: table to have their treat. Wow, Papa, that's a lot

124
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: of cookies. I think that might be enough cookies for

125
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: the whole school, Bernice said, after taking a big drink

126
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: of milk. Haha, it is a lot of cookies. It's

127
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: much faster when we work together and more fun. My

128
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: teacher says that working together is better because everyone has

129
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: something special to offer. That sounds about right, Papa Bearer said, So,

130
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: what else happened today at school? It was a pretty

131
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: easy day, Papa. The teachers didn't start anything super hard

132
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 1: because I think they want to give us a rest

133
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: after having so many tests. In art class, we made

134
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: some Valentine's Day decorations. The teacher said we could make

135
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 1: anything we wanted, so Bobby and I painted, and Gertrude

136
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: made a whole bunch of heart shaped things. I don't

137
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: really know what they were, but they looked nice. But

138
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 1: Bobby almost got in trouble because he started to paint

139
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: another poop emoji, but instead it turned out to be

140
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: a dark red, blobby heart. It might not be his

141
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 1: best work, but that's okay because he tried something new.

142
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: What did you paint, Papa Bear asked, I tried to

143
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: paint an angel because you said I looked like an

144
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: angel when I slept, and one of the teachers said

145
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: that that was a theme in Valentines, but it didn't turn.

146
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 2: Out so well.

147
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: It looked more like a flying alien than an angel.

148
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: Bernice said with a shrug. I'm sure it looks beautiful,

149
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: even if your painting didn't turn out quite like you planned.

150
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: Papa Beart said, yeah, I think it was still okay.

151
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: At lunchtime, Mika, a classmate, shared some of her lunch

152
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: and I didn't really like it. I gave her some

153
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: of mine and she didn't really like it that much either.

154
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: We both just laughed because we have different tastes in food.

155
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: What did she bring for lunch that you didn't like?

156
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: You like just about everything, Papa Bear asked. It was tofu.

157
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: I think she said that sometimes her mother puts sauce

158
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: on it and stuff, but today it was just plain.

159
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: She likes it no matter if it has sauce on

160
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: it or not. But if I was going to eat it,

161
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: it would have to have a whole lot of sauce. Well,

162
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: you both tried a new food. You don't have to

163
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: like everything, Papa Bear said, yeah, I think so too.

164
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: The rest of the day was kind of slow. Papa,

165
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: I think we have rested enough and we should start

166
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: learning some hard stuff again, especially in science. I can't

167
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: wait to learn more science. Oh yeah, and read more

168
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: stories in English and math too, Bernice said as she

169
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: finished her milk.

170
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 2: Aha. Yes, it's fun to learn new things and read new.

171
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: Stories, Papa Bear said, as he went to the oven

172
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: to take out the cookies.

173
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 2: Oh smell so yummy.

174
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: Papa, Um, should I taste a few just to make

175
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 1: sure they are okay? I mean, I'm sure they are,

176
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: but we should make sure, right, Bernice said, with a

177
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: great big grin.

178
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: Haha.

179
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: After they cool, we can have a taste test. It's

180
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: sleepy time again, said Bernice. And I think I am

181
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: super sleepy tonight. Thank you for helping me make cookies, Papa.

182
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: I think everyone will love them. You are welcome, little bear.

183
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: I think your classmates will appreciate the gesture most of all.

184
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 2: Then Cookie walked.

185
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: Into Bernice's bedroom, came over to her for a pet,

186
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: and jumped up on the bed. I think Cookie has

187
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: the right idea. Crawl into bed and I will be

188
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: right back, Papa Bear said as he left the room,

189
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: yawning as he walked returning to her bedroom, he asked,

190
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: did you do all the things you need to do

191
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: before bed? I am sure I did. I had a

192
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: bubble bath, but I think I used too much bubble

193
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: stuff because I think the bubbles might have reached the

194
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: bathroom ceiling. That's a lot of bubbles, Papa.

195
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: Bear said with a laugh.

196
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 1: After I dried myself off, I put on my flannel pajamas,

197
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: brushed my teeth, and did breathing exercises and a few stretches.

198
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: I even read a bit of my book too, Bernice

199
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: said with a big yawn. You can't start yawning before

200
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: I leave the room, Papa Bear said, with another yawn.

201
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: You remember what happened last time. Yeah, we gave each

202
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: other the yawns because they are so contagious.

203
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: Bernice said with a laugh.

204
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: I think I better try and go right to sleep

205
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: before I start yawning uncontrollably and Mama has to come

206
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: in and rescue me from a yawn attack. Bernice said,

207
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: with an even bigger yawn. I think that's a good idea,

208
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: Little Bear, Papa Bear said with yet another yawn. As

209
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: they both yawned, Papa Bear gave Bernice a great big

210
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: squeeze of a hug. Yawn. I love you, Papa yawn,

211
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: I love you too, Little Bear, and That is the

212
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: end of our story. Good Night, sleep tight.
