sleepy piano music

This is similar to the type of music we play during rest time. We play this music after we’ve finished one of our “Guided Relaxation Stories.” We gently rub backs during this and almost all fall asleep. We continue to play the music even after they’ve fallen asleep so that the sounds of the other children who are awake doing activities do not disturb them. When we are ready to wake them we soften the music and begin to play at our normal volume.
