    In The Fairy Godmother Who Couldn’t, young Princess Poppy wishes she could grow up faster — but a hilariously well-meaning, wildly unskilled fairy godmother turns her wish into magical chaos.

This heartwarming, laugh-out-loud tale ends with a gentle mindfulness moment that helps children celebrate themselves just as they are. Parents, here are 4 ways to create a sense of play at bedtime: 1) Stretch your arms and legs out and curl into a ball with your child when prompted. 2) Give your child a hug when prompted. 3) Repeat the affirmations with your child. 4) Make simple magic wands with your child and wave them during the Fairy Godmother's song.
