All toddler play

Goodnight, little room

Say a soft goodnight to the familiar things around you.

3 minutes · Ages 1–3 · No supplies · With a grown-up

Try it together

  1. Sit together and look around the room.
  2. Wave to something familiar and say, “Goodnight, chair.”
  3. Follow your child’s gaze or point and say goodnight to one more thing.

Follow their little lead.

You can do all the talking. An older toddler might choose what gets a goodnight next.

Read the idea, then put the screen aside. You can stop whenever your child is ready.
