The Moon's Soft Blanket
When the day was all done, the moon woke up, round and kind.
The moon had a blanket — a soft, silver blanket made all of light.
It floated the blanket down, down, over the sleepy town.
It tucked in the rooftops. It tucked in the trees.
It tucked in the cats and the dogs and the little brown mice.
And it tucked in you, warm from your head to your toes.
“Sleep now,” whispered the moon. “I'll hold the light till morning.”
Goodnight. Goodnight. The moon is watching over you.
Read aloud in a warm, calm voice in the Day2Tale app — with a built-in sleep timer.

In the app, the moon can tuck in your child by name — along with their room, their favorite stuffed animal, and the people sleeping close by.
