What Parents Need to Know
About Bedtime Stories
Parents need to know that kids will likely giggle and empathize with the sleep-defiant characters in this video. Parents plagued by potty talk may be slightly annoyed when Baby Bear announces he needs to "wee" in "I'm Not Sleepy." Sound effects accompany his visit to the bathroom. In "Little Princess' Bedtime," the main character hops out of a tree in her nightgown, which flops over her head. She's not wearing underwear, but there are no graphic images. One group of kids, aged 4 to 9, did not appear to notice the omission. Families who watch this video may want to use it as a teaching to tool to help their little ones eventually fall asleep, the way the cuddling characters do.
