Ep 970. A Curious Question: a kids’ guided relaxation and calming story

After meeting Dragon in the park, Callie has a curious question for her mother. Narrator: Male Story Begins: 3:48 A Curious Question Excerpt: Callie was very happy to see Dragon again! Anora had been the one to introduce Callie to Dragon, and they’d quickly become friends. Dragon stopped near the jungle gym and looked at Anora with a big, friendly smile. Then, Dragon turned to Callie and smiled at her, too. Dragon lifted both hands and pointed their index fingers toward their mouth. Then, starting at the center, they swept their fingers upward toward their cheeks. “What’s that mean?” Callie whispered to Anora.
