477. Moving Day: a mindful story and relaxation for kids

Callie is moving to a new home on Ahway Island, but is worried about making new friends. Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Moving Day” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday! Narrator: Female Story Begins: 9:39 Moving Day Excerpt: It was a cold winter morning but Callie hardly noticed. Callie was just too excited to even think about the cold. Today, Callie’s family was moving to a new house! Callie was a little sad, of course. She had been happy in her previous home where she had lots of friends. But mom and dad told her that Ahway Island was a wonderful place to live and that she would make lots of new friends. Plus, she could visit her old friends sometimes.
