Which story should we hear?

There is no right order. Choose the character your child likes best, or pick a different one each time. The stories are short enough for a little listening break and gentle enough to fit into a calm bedtime routine.

Listen out for the sounds that belong to each friend: Floppy Dog has his woofs, Fluffy Cat has her soft meows, Tall Horse goes clip clop, Big Dino has his slow stomps, and Squishy Frog goes hop hop.

Make story time your own

Children can join in with the repeated words, make the animal sounds, or simply listen. You can pause and ask what they think the character might do next. There is no need to turn it into a lesson. It is simply a little story to enjoy together.

When you have finished, why not choose a picture in the free colouring book or return to Slow Wobble World and meet the friends again?
