Welcome to Story Time!

Hello, friends! We’re so happy you’re here with us today. Let’s have some fun with a wonderful story called “Goodnight Moon” by Margaret Wise Brown. The pictures in the book are by Clement Hurd. Are you ready to explore a cozy room with us?

The Great Green Room

In this special room, everything is calm and peaceful. There’s a big green room with lots of interesting things to see. Can you imagine a room like that?

Things in the Room

In the room, there’s a telephone. Have you ever seen a telephone? It’s something people use to talk to each other. And look, there’s a bright red balloon floating in the air! Balloons are so much fun, aren’t they?

On the wall, there’s a picture of a cow jumping over the moon. Wow, that’s a silly picture! Do you think cows can really jump over the moon?

Friends in the Room

There are three little bears sitting on chairs. They look so comfy! Do you like to sit on chairs too?

We also see two little kittens playing around. Kittens are baby cats, and they love to have fun. Do you like kittens?

And look, there’s a pair of mittens. Mittens keep your hands warm when it’s cold outside. Do you wear mittens in the winter?

Let’s Say Goodnight

As we look around the room, it’s time to say goodnight to everything. Saying goodnight helps us get ready for bed. Can you say goodnight to the telephone, the balloon, the picture, the bears, the kittens, and the mittens?

Goodnight, room. Goodnight, everyone. We hope you have sweet dreams!

Thank You for Joining Us!

We loved sharing this story with you. Remember, you can always come back for more story time fun. Have a wonderful day, and keep exploring the world of books!

  1. Can you think of a special room in your house or somewhere else that makes you feel calm and peaceful, just like the great green room? What makes it special for you?
  2. In the story, there are many interesting things in the room, like a telephone and a red balloon. What are some of your favorite things in your room, and why do you like them?
  3. We saw a picture of a cow jumping over the moon. What is the silliest or most fun picture you have ever seen? Can you describe it to us?
  1. Room Exploration: Create your own “Great Green Room” at home or in the classroom. Gather items like a toy telephone, a balloon, and a picture of a cow. Arrange them in a cozy corner. Ask the children to imagine and describe what else they would like to add to their room. Encourage them to use their imagination and creativity. Can they think of a silly picture to hang on the wall, like the cow jumping over the moon?

  2. Goodnight Routine: Practice saying goodnight to different objects around you. Before bedtime, walk around the room with your child and say goodnight to their toys, books, and even the furniture. This activity helps them develop a bedtime routine and understand the concept of winding down for the day. Ask them why they think saying goodnight is important. How does it make them feel?

  3. Animal Movements: Discuss the picture of the cow jumping over the moon. Ask the children if they think cows can really jump over the moon. Then, have a fun movement activity where they pretend to be different animals. Can they hop like a bunny, crawl like a kitten, or jump like a frog? This helps them understand animal movements and encourages physical activity.
