Thank You, Night - A Soothing Story
An evening stroll through nature connects a young boy to his senses and helps him relax at the end of the day.
A child is feeling anxious as the day winds down. Then, he hears a soft breeze greeting him with a tap on his window. Curious, he decides to go for a walk with Papa. They wander where nature beckons, following their senses and letting their minds find peace. Eventually they arrive at the seashore where they stand in awe, observing the vast ocean and the stars above, before returning home relaxed and ready to sleep.
