1 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome to sleep tight Stories. Bernice is 2 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: not very happy as she is walking home with Ethan. 3 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: He asks her why she has a frown on her face, 4 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: and she explains. When Bernice gets into the house, she 5 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 1: talks to Papa Bear about her day and Bernice realizes 6 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: that it actually wasn't such a bad day after all. 7 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: Does Bernice need glasses? Why do you have that frown 8 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: on your face? Ethan asked as he walked down the 9 00:00:55,240 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: street with Bernice. I failed to test today. That's why 10 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: I never fail tests. I don't think, Bernice said, walking 11 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: slower than she would usually you had a test today. 12 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: I didn't think we had any tests today. We just 13 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: did boring stuff in my class, Ethan said as they 14 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: arrived at Bernice's walkway to her house. No, I had 15 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: an eye test today with the nurse because my teacher 16 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: said I was squinting too much at the board. I 17 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: went to see her and she said that she was 18 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: going to send a note home for Mama and Papa 19 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: because I need to see an eye doctor. That's not 20 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 1: so bad, Bernice. Besides, wearing glasses looks cool. Don't you 21 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: think my mother wears them and likes them? And so 22 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: does my grandmother, but she is kind of old. You 23 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: said before that my grandmother looks cool because she likes 24 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: fashion or something, right, Yeah, I guess so. Oh. I 25 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 1: just feel sad about failing the task. I haven't thought 26 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: about the glasses part yet, Bernice said as she walked 27 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: to her front door. Okay, see you tomorrow at school. 28 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Ethan yelled as he started running to his grandmother's house. 29 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: Bernice quietly opened the front door to her little house 30 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: and walked in, closing the door behind her. And Cookie 31 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: was sitting there waiting for her. Cookie, how did you 32 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: know I was home? You are so smart. I have 33 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: to take off my sneakers and then I can give 34 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: you some pets. Isn't it great that I could wear 35 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: my favorite sneakers today? Mamma said I could if I wanted, 36 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: since the ground wasn't wet and the snow had disappeared. 37 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: I think it's great that my feet haven't grown much 38 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: because there will be no other sneakers as good as these, 39 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: because these have painted all over them, which makes them cool, 40 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: I think. After taking off her sneakers and hanging up 41 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: her jacket, Bernice sat down to give Cookie a bunch 42 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: of pets. Cookie immediately started purring. Today wasn't really a 43 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: good day. Cookie. I failed the test, and I don't 44 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: think I have ever failed a test. But it wasn't 45 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: really fair because I couldn't prepare for this one. It 46 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: was an eye test, and the nurse said that I 47 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: have to go to see a doctor, and I don't 48 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: really want to, Bernice said as she gently scratched under 49 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: Cookie's chin. This made Cookie close her eyes and smile. 50 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: I have some fresh cookies for you in the kitchen, 51 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: little Bear, Papa Bear said, in his super low voice, 52 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: and some cold milk this time. Don't be too slow 53 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: or I might eat all the cookies up, Papa Bear said, laughing. 54 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: Bernice knew he was joking, but she hurried anyway, I 55 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: missed you today, Cookie, But I guess I should go 56 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: in and tell Papa the bad news. And I need 57 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: to have some cookies, of course, Bernie said, giving Cookie 58 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 1: one last pet as she got up and walked slowly 59 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: into the kitchen. When she arrived in the kitchen, she 60 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: dropped her book bag down on the floor and let 61 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: out a big sigh. Hi, little Bear, how was your 62 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: day today, Papa Bear asked as he puts some oatmeal 63 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: raisin cookies on a plate for them to share. You 64 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: don't look so happy again today. Don't tell me those 65 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: boys are teasing others again, are they no, Papa? They 66 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: actually apologized to Gertrude and are trying to be our friends. 67 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: Bernice said. They even had lunch with the group yesterday 68 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: and shared some of their treats with us. They had 69 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: fortune cookies, which are kind of fun. Bobby really liked 70 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: the fortune he had In his cookie. It said you 71 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: will become famous for inventing a homework doing robot. I 72 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: think he went home to start making it right away. 73 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: That's a good one, Papa Bear said, smiling. But why 74 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: do you look a little sad? Is everything okay? Because 75 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: I failed a test? Papa? I don't usually fail tests, 76 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: even hard ones, and this was a super easy one. 77 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: Bernice said, I don't remember you telling me you had 78 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: any tests today. Papa Bear said, what subject was your 79 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: test in? It wasn't that kind of test, Papa. Today 80 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: during math class, the teacher was putting lots of stuff 81 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: on the whiteboard, and I guess I must have been 82 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: squinting or something. My teacher asked me to go see 83 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: the nurse and she gave me an eye test and 84 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: I failed. Papa. She said that I needed to go 85 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: see an eye doctor or something. I think she will 86 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: send home a note for you, or maybe an email. 87 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: I'm not sure which. Well, that's not the end of 88 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: the world, little bear, you are due for a visit 89 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 1: to the eye doctor anyway, Papa Bear said, with a smile. 90 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: Why don't you wash your hands and we'll have some 91 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: cookies and milk. After washing her hands, Bernice sat down 92 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,679 Speaker 1: and grabbed a cookie. This cookie smells super yummy, Papa. 93 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: After taking a bite and a drink of milk, she continued, 94 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: I guess I am upset because I never failed tests 95 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: and it didn't seem fair. And I don't know how 96 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: I will feel if I have to wear glasses. Will 97 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 1: it look nice? I think you shouldn't be concerned about 98 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: how it might look. You will always look like you 99 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: no matter if you wear glasses or not. I wear 100 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: reading glasses sometimes, and I think I look super smart 101 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: when I wear them, right, Papa Bear said, smiling. Are 102 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: you sure they make you look super smart? Papa Bernice said, laughing, 103 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: Why can't my eyes just be the same. I don't 104 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: like not being able to pass a test. There are 105 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: some things we can't control, little bear, but I think 106 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: you do many things right to ensure your eyes stay healthy. 107 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: You use lots of light when you read, take breaks 108 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: when we read together, or watch TV, and spend lots 109 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: of time outdoors, and we don't really know if you 110 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: are truly nearsighted or not. It was just one test. 111 00:07:55,240 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: The nurse called it myopia, Papa. That sounds super serious. Yes, yeah, 112 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: but that's just the fancy word for near sightedness. When 113 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: someone has myopia, it means their eyes are a bit 114 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: like the camera that doesn't focus well on far away stuff, 115 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: making those things look blurry. Their eyes work really great 116 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: for seeing things up close, like reading a book, but 117 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: not so well for seeing things far away, like the 118 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: whiteboard at the front of your classroom. It's just how 119 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: some eyes are. But wearing glasses can help make everything 120 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: look clear again, like adjusting the camera to take a 121 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: perfect picture. I guess, Papa, if I do need to 122 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: wear glasses, can I get big ones with dinosaurs all 123 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: around them? I think Bobby would find those funny, and 124 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: so would I. Bernice said, with a great big smile. Ummm, 125 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: I think you should ask Mama about that one, Papa 126 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 1: Bear said, with a laugh, So what about the rest 127 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: of your day? It was a good day, Papa. We 128 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: had our class today and Gertrude painted a really nice flower. 129 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: Bobby is into painting mountains and volcanoes now, and I 130 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: painted a picture of Cookie. But it wasn't that good. 131 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: But I tried and had fun, so I am happy 132 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: with it. Math class was okay, I guess I think 133 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: what we are doing is super easy. In science class, 134 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: we had to work on our project and Bobby was 135 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: serious about it and didn't giggle or anything. Ethan walked 136 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: home with me from the bus and went to his 137 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: grandmother's house. She's pretty nice. Oh and at lunchtime, Bobby 138 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: told another joke. He's really into telling them lately. Are 139 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: you ready to hear it? Bernice asked, okay, Papa Bear said, smiling, 140 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: go ahead, all right. What do you call a dinosaur fart? 141 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: Bernice asked, after waiting for a moment, she answered for 142 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: Papa Bear, A blast from the past. Ha ha. I thought 143 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: that was funnier than the last one. Haha that Bobby. 144 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: Papa Bear said, you should tell that one to Mama later, 145 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: but not when we are eating. I don't think she 146 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: likes talking about farts when we eat. Ha ha, Yeah, 147 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Remember that time when Bobby came 148 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: over for pizza and he and I were giggling at 149 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: the table. He was making all kinds of fart noises 150 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: with his mouth, and we both thought it was super funny. 151 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: But I don't think Mama did, Bernice said, laughing. I remember. 152 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: I also remember Bobby stopped when Mama said there would 153 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: be no ice cream if he didn't stop making the noises. 154 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: Papa Bear said, smiling, Yeah, Bobby loves ice cream and farts. 155 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: Bernice said, giggling. We should have Bobby over again, and 156 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: Ethan and Gertrude. We could have a pizza party, Papa, 157 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: as long as there are no fart sounds at the table, 158 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: Papa Bear said, laughing. Why don't you finish your cookies 159 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: and milk and work on your homework while I prepare dinner. Okay, Papa, 160 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: I finished my homework at school, so I think I 161 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: will do some reading. Thank you for the delicious cookies. 162 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: You are welcome. Don't forget to turn on a light 163 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: when you are reading, Papa Bear said, it's that time. 164 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: Papa said, Bernice, And what time is that, little Bear? 165 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: Papa Bear replied, it's time for a big Papa Bear hug. 166 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: Did you do all the things you need to do 167 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: before bed? I think so. I had a soapy bath, 168 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: hod on clean pajamas, brushed my teeth for a super 169 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 1: long time, and did some stretches. I really like this 170 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: new toothpaste, Papa. When I use it, it makes my 171 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: mouth feel like a snowstorm. Wow, that must be some 172 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: special toothpaste Mama bought. I guess I should try it, 173 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: Papa Bear said, laughing, Yeah, Papa, it makes my mouth 174 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: super cool. It really did feel like it was snowing 175 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: in my mouth. Even Cookie thought it was special. When 176 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: I blew my breath on her, she scrunched her nose 177 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: and sneezed. She joined me for my super mini yoga 178 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: session tonight. I practiced the new moves that Mama taught me. 179 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: You should do them too, Papa. It's fun to get 180 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: all stretchy. Mama keeps asking me to try, but I 181 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm scared that if I get into a stretch, 182 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: I might get stuck and not be able to move, 183 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: Papa Bear said, laughing. I would help you. Papa. I 184 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: don't want you to be stock because then you wouldn't 185 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: be able to bake more cookies. Bernie said, laughing, Paha, well, 186 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: maybe I can do them with you next time, so 187 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: that you can make sure I don't get stuck. Papa 188 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: Bear said, with a great big yawn. Oh no, Papa, 189 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: you yawned. That means I might do. Bernie said with 190 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: a yawn. Are you comfy and warm, yes, Papa. How 191 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: about twigg A, Wolfy and Madeline? Are they ready for 192 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: sleep too? I think they are. And what about you, Cookie? 193 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: Are you ready for a nap? Papa Bear said, yawning. 194 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: Cookie opened her mouth and yawned too. Papa yawns are 195 00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: contagious for cats too, Oh my, they might be, Papa 196 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: Bear said, starting to make more great big yawns. We 197 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: better say good night in a hurry. Give me a 198 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: hug and a kiss, Papa Bear said, trying hard not 199 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: to yawn. I love you, Papa. I love you too, 200 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: little Bear, and they both yawned together, And that is 201 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: the end of our story. Good night, sleep tight.
