Mommy & Me - Lullaby & Goodnight

Lullaby & Goodnight portrays bedtime as it should be: a time of togetherness, soothing rituals, and song. A multiethnic group of mothers, Walter the radio (Tim Conway), Rosebud the talking flower (Caroline Rhea), and a host of animated friends create an ideal bedtime routine for several children. Songs like "This Is the Way We Wash" and "Pajamas" accompany footage of the children getting ready for bed. Animated segments include story time with "Winken, Blinken, and Nod" and favorite lullabies like "Toora, Loora, Loora" and "Brahms's Lullaby." Mommy and Me cofounder Dr. Cindy Nurik follows the presentation with advice about establishing bedtime routines. While this series will not put a child to sleep, it offers a nice selection of lullabies, poems, and stories appropriate for bedtime. (Intended for children ages birth to 5 years old and their parents.) --Tami Horiuchi
