What’s it all about?

Sarah & Duck invite some friends over for a sleepover, but getting to sleep is tougher than planned.

This is the episode where:

• Sarah & Duck invite Scooter Boy, Flamingo & John over for a sleepover

• They all play a fun card game – ‘Same Bread’ – that Flamingo wins, until it is time for bed

• They find it hard to get to sleep, except for Flamingo, so they try standing on one leg like her, but that doesn’t work

• They go downstairs and Sarah tries reading a bedtime story – but that doesn’t work either!

• Narrator suggests they try look up “ways to fall asleep” on the computer – but then they notice Moon out of the window

• John says the Moon must be very good at getting to sleep since he always sleeps during the day – so they ask him for advice

• Moon takes them through his bedtime routine, very slowly, and calmly, which makes them all very tired and they fall asleep under a blanket together

This is what we learn...

  • Sleepovers are exciting, but sometimes it can be hard to fall asleep
  • Sometimes thinking about things too much can keep you awake
  • Stretching, and thinking about slow, calming, relaxing things can make it easier to fall asleep
  • It’s good to ask for advice when you’re finding something difficult
  • Owls blink rather slowly!
