- 0:01Speaker 1: Tonight's bedtime story, His Cocoa goes metal detecting by Annabell picture.
- 0:08Speaker 1: Let's get cozy and drift off together before we do,
- 0:13Speaker 1: could you please tap subscribe. By doing this small thing,
- 0:17Speaker 1: you'll let YouTube know you love what we do, which
- 0:20Speaker 1: will help us grow. Let's get ourselves cozy, snuggle down,
- 0:26Speaker 1: and I'll begin. Dusk was gathering above the tree tops
- 0:34Speaker 1: in sleepy forest, and the birds were looking for somewhere
- 0:38Speaker 1: to roost. Coco watched them gather in great crowds, then
- 0:43Speaker 1: fly this way and that, searching for the perfect tree
- 0:47Speaker 1: in which to spend the night. They roost together for
- 0:51Speaker 1: warmth and protection, he explained to Kira, who was standing
- 0:56Speaker 1: at his side in the forest. Long sleepy shadows surrounded
- 1:00Speaker 1: them on all sides as the Koala sun finally dipped
- 1:04Speaker 1: out of sight, taking the last hint of daylight with her.
- 1:10Speaker 1: It had been one of those long summer days that
- 1:13Speaker 1: seemed as if it would never end, and Coco had
- 1:16Speaker 1: felt charmed by his life in the Koala Kingdom.
- 1:20Speaker 2: He had dashed.
- 1:21Speaker 1: About, wondering why certain wildflowers grew in the shade and
- 1:26Speaker 1: others preferred the sunlight, and why dandelion fluff chose that
- 1:30Speaker 1: particular moment to let go and dance on the breeze,
- 1:35Speaker 1: and how tadpoles with squamy tails turned into frogs with strong,
- 1:40Speaker 1: hoppy legs. It had been a day of queries and curiosity,
- 1:46Speaker 1: and now his attention was caught by the birds in
- 1:49Speaker 1: the purple sky. I wonder where they're going, he said,
- 1:54Speaker 1: as the birds traveled through the darkening sky as if
- 1:58Speaker 1: they were carrying the night on their black wings.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Where did they go to sleep?
- 2:05Speaker 1: I have no idea. Go go, Kira replied, sounding a
- 2:11Speaker 1: little bored. She liked the birds, but she didn't feel
- 2:15Speaker 1: a huge amount of curiosity about their bedtime habits. She
- 2:20Speaker 1: was more concerned with getting into bed herself, snuggling up
- 2:24Speaker 1: beneath her cozy covers with a bedtime story, Truths be told.
- 2:29Speaker 2: She was exhausted.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Koco had run her ragged for the past few hours,
- 2:34Speaker 1: sprinting from one side of the forest, exclaiming in delight
- 2:39Speaker 1: and posing questions that didn't really have an answer. Now,
- 2:44Speaker 1: surely it was time for sleep. The sun had set
- 2:49Speaker 1: and the air smelled of a day well lived. The
- 2:52Speaker 1: ground had a baked sort of scent, as if It
- 2:55Speaker 1: had spent the past few hours in one of Betty
- 2:58Speaker 1: Badger's ovens and had been taken out to cool What
- 3:02Speaker 1: do you think, Kira, Coco said, Do they roost in
- 3:07Speaker 1: the same tree every night? Or do they find a
- 3:10Speaker 1: different tree each evening? Again, Cocoa, for the seventy first time,
- 3:18Speaker 1: I have absolutely no idea, Kira giggled. But I love
- 3:25Speaker 1: that you're curious. It's a nice quality to have. Indeed
- 3:30Speaker 1: it is, Grandpa said, emerging from cozy cabin, carrying a
- 3:35Speaker 1: large metallic object in his hand. It shone purple in
- 3:39Speaker 1: the haze of dusk, or perhaps it shone purple for
- 3:44Speaker 1: some other supernatural reason. It certainly looked quite magical, glinting
- 3:50Speaker 1: violet beneath the trees. As Grandpa approached them with a smile,
- 3:56Speaker 1: the tuft of white fur on his head wafted in
- 3:59Speaker 1: the breeze, and his half moon glasses caught the light
- 4:03Speaker 1: of the first stars and twinkled. And that is why
- 4:08Speaker 1: who's time to give you this? He held out the
- 4:12Speaker 1: mysterious object. Co Ko simply stared at it for a moment,
- 4:18Speaker 1: wondering what it was.
- 4:20Speaker 2: There was a long.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Metal stick about the size of one of ko Ko's arms.
- 4:25Speaker 1: One end of the stick was attached to a large
- 4:28Speaker 1: disc and the other to an electronic box with old
- 4:32Speaker 1: fashioned buttons and switches. Whatever the object was, it was
- 4:38Speaker 1: ancient but well maintained. The electronic box still worked. It
- 4:44Speaker 1: was beeping now. As Grandpa hovered the disc above Koko's
- 4:48Speaker 1: furry toes, move aside, Cocoa, He said, you're standing on something.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Ko Ko stared at his feet, feeling puzzled. The only
- 5:00Speaker 1: thing he was standing on was a patch of grass,
- 5:04Speaker 1: but he did as Grandpa asked. Grandpa bent down and
- 5:09Speaker 1: rummaged around in the grass where Cocoa had been just
- 5:12Speaker 1: moments before. A few seconds later, he was holding up
- 5:17Speaker 1: a bright silver coin. Heik a metal detector. Coco laughed,
- 5:25Speaker 1: finally understanding what he was seeing. He looked at the machine,
- 5:30Speaker 1: desperate to have a turn. Not just any metal detector, Cocoa,
- 5:36Speaker 1: Grandpa said, passing the coin to Kira, who marveled at
- 5:40Speaker 1: its shiny face and twinkly edges. The family metal detector.
- 5:47Speaker 1: It's been a Koala heirloom for decades. Grandpa stroked the
- 5:53Speaker 1: handle of the metal detector, his eyes soft and warm.
- 5:58Speaker 1: It brought me a mile down had many hours of joy,
- 6:02Speaker 1: and he and his father too. Ko Ko gazed at
- 6:07Speaker 1: the ancient metal detector in wonder. It's wonderful, he said,
- 6:15Speaker 1: This wonderful, and it's yours, Grandpa said, holding it out.
- 6:21Speaker 1: It fitted Ko Ko's paw perfectly. Mine, ko Ko replied.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Hardly able to believe his ears. Yours.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Grandpa smiled. This machine needs to be with someone curious,
- 6:39Speaker 1: someone who's always asking questions. That's ko Ko, all right,
- 6:46Speaker 1: said Kira. He never stops asking questions. Ko Ko held
- 6:53Speaker 1: the metal detector a little tighter. The machine felt surprisingly
- 6:58Speaker 1: comfortable in his pause, not too heavy, not too light,
- 7:03Speaker 1: as if it were made just for him. Thank you,
- 7:08Speaker 1: he said, gazing at Grandpa, his golden face full of gratitude.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I promise I'll take very good care of it. I
- 7:19Speaker 1: know you will, Grandpa replied warmly, And I think today
- 7:24Speaker 1: might be the perfect day to give it its very
- 7:28Speaker 1: first proper outing. Just then, the door of cozy cabin
- 7:34Speaker 1: creaked open, and Dad stepped outside, brushing crumbs off his
- 7:39Speaker 1: fur as if he just enjoyed an early evening snack.
- 7:44Speaker 1: He paused when he saw the metal detector in Coco's hands.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Well now, he said, raising his eyebrows. I haven't seen
- 7:54Speaker 1: that old thing for a good few years, Cocoa beamed.
- 8:00Speaker 1: Dpa says, we're going to try it out. Dad glanced
- 8:04Speaker 1: from the metal detector to Grandpa, amusement dancing in his eyes.
- 8:11Speaker 1: And what about bedtime? I wonder? Grandpa cleared his throat,
- 8:17Speaker 1: looking a little sheepish. Bedtime is important, of course, but
- 8:23Speaker 1: couldn't we just go out at dusk like we used
- 8:26Speaker 1: to when you were small. Metal detecting is even more
- 8:30Speaker 1: magical in the moonlight. What do you say for old
- 8:35Speaker 1: time's sake? The amusement in Dad's eyes spread to his mouth,
- 8:41Speaker 1: which twitched a little, then broke into a grin. Where
- 8:45Speaker 1: are you thinking, Grandpa shrugged, Harmony Cove. Of course, Dad
- 8:53Speaker 1: threw back his head and laughed Harmony Cove. At this time,
- 9:00Speaker 1: Ko Ko jumped up and down on the spot.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Oh yes, please, Dad, please, it.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Is rather urgent, Grandpa went on. You see, many years
- 9:14Speaker 1: ago I buried a small treasure chest at Harmony Cove.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I tucked away a few special things from my younger days.
- 9:24Speaker 1: The trouble is, he said, scratching the white tuft of
- 9:28Speaker 1: hair on top of his head, I can't quite remember
- 9:32Speaker 1: what I put inside it, Dad chuckled softly.
- 9:38Speaker 2: And that's urgent.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Is it a treasure chest from many years ago that
- 9:44Speaker 1: suddenly needs locating right this very moment, precisely? Grandpa replied
- 9:52Speaker 1: with a smirk. Urgent business, I'm sure you agree. I'd
- 9:57Speaker 1: very much like to find out what's in there. Coco
- 10:02Speaker 1: watched as Dad looked up at the tree tops, assessing
- 10:06Speaker 1: the situation. The purple light of dusk lingered between the branches,
- 10:13Speaker 1: as if time had paused for a moment just for them. Okay,
- 10:19Speaker 1: he said, at last, for old time's sake or new
- 10:23Speaker 1: time's sake, for you, Cocoa. If we set off now,
- 10:28Speaker 1: we might reach Harmony Cove before it gets really dark.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Coco's heart gave a happy thump. Harmony Cove. It was
- 10:38Speaker 1: one of the little Koala's favorite places in the whole
- 10:42Speaker 1: of the Koala Kingdom. A wide sandy beach where the
- 10:47Speaker 1: sea rolled in gently and the cliffs stood tall and protective,
- 10:52Speaker 1: like kindly guardians watching over the shore. It was the
- 10:57Speaker 1: perfect place to hunt for treasure. But first they needed supplies.
- 11:03Speaker 1: As Mum put an exhausted Cira to bed, Cocoa, Dad
- 11:08Speaker 1: and Grandpa gathered what they needed in a small canvas bag,
- 11:12Speaker 1: sandwiges wrapped in paper, a flask of warm cocoa, and
- 11:17Speaker 1: a thick blanket in case the night air turned chilly.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Then they set off down the winding forest path the
- 11:25Speaker 1: Sleepy River. When they reached the river bank, Coco looked
- 11:30Speaker 1: for a boat that might take them to Harmony Cove. Instead,
- 11:35Speaker 1: there was something rather more surprising. A giant turtle rested
- 11:41Speaker 1: patiently in the shallows, his shell rising above the water.
- 11:47Speaker 1: A sturdy wooden platform had been fastened to it with
- 11:50Speaker 1: a safety railing and benches for at least twenty passengers.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Painted neatly along the side of the platform were the
- 11:59Speaker 1: words turtle taxi. Coco exclaimed, cool. The enormous turtle let
- 12:08Speaker 1: out a low rumbling sound somewhere between a sigh and
- 12:13Speaker 1: a greeting, and shifted his flippers in the water.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Carefully.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Cocoa, Dad and Grandpa climbed up onto the wooden platform,
- 12:24Speaker 1: settling themselves on the bench. With a gentle push, the
- 12:29Speaker 1: turtle eased away from the bank and began his slow,
- 12:33Speaker 1: steady journey along Sleepy River. The water glimmered in the
- 12:39Speaker 1: fading light, reflecting the purple of the sky. Ripples spread
- 12:45Speaker 1: behind them as the turtle moved forward, unhurried and calm,
- 12:51Speaker 1: as if he had all the time in the world.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Coco sat at the front, leaning over the railing, watching
- 13:00Speaker 1: the forest slide past. Dragonflies skimmed the surface of the water,
- 13:07Speaker 1: and a gentle breeze whispered through the trees. I wonder
- 13:12Speaker 1: where dragonflies sleep, Kocho said, his eyes following a bright
- 13:18Speaker 1: blue one as it hovered by his side, then darted
- 13:22Speaker 1: away again. And how do they know when it's time
- 13:26Speaker 1: to stop flying? Do they have a set bedtime? He
- 13:32Speaker 1: tilted his head, watching the ripples spread out behind the turtle.
- 13:38Speaker 1: And what about the river? He went on, Does it
- 13:41Speaker 1: ever stop moving? Grandpa smiled, exchanging a knowing look with Dad.
- 13:50Speaker 1: The curious little Koala really was the rightful owner of
- 13:55Speaker 1: the family heirloom. It's like a long memory, Grandpa replied,
- 14:02Speaker 1: his voice calm and thoughtful, as the water slipped past,
- 14:07Speaker 1: always moving, always carrying things with it, little pieces of
- 14:14Speaker 1: where it's been and everything it's seen. It just keeps going,
- 14:22Speaker 1: passing its story along all the way to the sea.
- 14:28Speaker 1: The sea, Coca repeated, and as if on cue, the
- 14:33Speaker 1: river widened, the trees thinned, the sky opened up as
- 14:39Speaker 1: the sound of waves.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Reached their ears.
- 14:43Speaker 1: They had reached Harmony Cove. It looked spectacular in the
- 14:50Speaker 1: silvery light of the Koala moon. The beach shimmered, and
- 14:55Speaker 1: the white cliffs twinkled. Seagulls wheeled over head, their calls
- 15:01Speaker 1: echoing faintly as the tide rolled in and out, rhythmic
- 15:08Speaker 1: and reassuring. The turtle taxi slowed to a stop by
- 15:14Speaker 1: a creaking wooden jetty. Coco hopped down, clutching the metal detector,
- 15:20Speaker 1: his eyes sweeping the wide open curve of the bay
- 15:25Speaker 1: as if clues to the treasure's chests. Whereabouts might be
- 15:28Speaker 1: written in the ripples of the sand. Where did you
- 15:32Speaker 1: bury it? Coco asked, the moment Grandpa's pause hit the jetty.
- 15:38Speaker 1: How did you choose the spot in the first place?
- 15:41Speaker 1: Did it feel important or did you just decide at random?
- 15:46Speaker 1: Dad shook his head as he climbed down to You
- 15:51Speaker 1: might want to give Grandpa a moment to think before
- 15:54Speaker 1: you expect him to remember everything.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Coco.
- 15:57Speaker 1: It was a long time ago, a very long time ago,
- 16:03Speaker 1: Grandpa replied, his hands on his hips as he surveyed
- 16:07Speaker 1: the beach before we begin. There is some one we
- 16:11Speaker 1: ought to see, some one who's very good at finding
- 16:16Speaker 1: things himself and returning them to their rightful owners. Of course,
- 16:21Speaker 1: Cocho's face broke into a happy grin. Michel he cried, Hey, Grandpa,
- 16:29Speaker 1: perhaps Michel has your treasure chest. Some one might have
- 16:33Speaker 1: found it. Grandpa's eyes twinkled. Well, there's only one way
- 16:41Speaker 1: to find out, isn't There. Tucked neatly against the pale
- 16:46Speaker 1: curve of the cliff was a small wooden building with
- 16:50Speaker 1: warm light glowing in its circular windows. Her hand painted
- 16:56Speaker 1: sign hung above the door. It read Lost Property Office,
- 17:02Speaker 1: and swayed gently in the evening breeze. The door opened
- 17:08Speaker 1: before Coco had even had a chance to knock. Well, now,
- 17:13Speaker 1: said Michele, his voice light and teasing. I thought I
- 17:18Speaker 1: saw three unlikely looking adventurers disturbing the peace. Not lost,
- 17:23Speaker 1: I my friends, not lost, no, Grandpa chuckled, but very
- 17:30Speaker 1: much hoping to find something. Well, in that case, you've
- 17:35Speaker 1: come to the right place, Michel replied, with a friendly bow.
- 17:40Speaker 1: The helpful little turtle welcomed them inside. The Lost Property
- 17:46Speaker 1: Office was just as Coco remembered it. Shelves lined with
- 17:50Speaker 1: carefully labeled boxes, each holding something that had once been misplaced.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Buckets and spades, keys and coins, watches and other precious trinkets.
- 18:03Speaker 1: They looked almost ghostly in the moonlight, a strange collection
- 18:08Speaker 1: of half remembered things. Cocoa was relieved that the treasure
- 18:14Speaker 1: chest was not among them. It was far more exciting
- 18:18Speaker 1: to think of finding it buried in the sand than
- 18:21Speaker 1: on the shelf of an office. I've never come across
- 18:25Speaker 1: a treasure chest before, Michelle said, once Grandpa had finished
- 18:30Speaker 1: explaining the reason for their journey. But I'd love to
- 18:34Speaker 1: help you find it, and to see how that rather
- 18:38Speaker 1: splendid metal detector works, Cocoa, it looks very useful. Indeed,
- 18:45Speaker 1: even if we don't find the treasure chest, I'm sure
- 18:48Speaker 1: we all locate other lost items. And with that, the
- 18:53Speaker 1: four friends stepped out onto the wide, quiet beach, where
- 18:57Speaker 1: moonbeams fell softly on the great expanse of silvery sand. Harmony.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Cove looked enormous, and Coco suddenly felt rather small and insignificant. Ready,
- 19:13Speaker 1: Grandpa asked, Coco wasn't, but he took a deep breath. Anyway,
- 19:19Speaker 1: it made him feel a little better ready, he said,
- 19:25Speaker 1: and with a determined paw, he switched on the metal detector.
- 19:29Speaker 1: It beaped straight away, making him jump. What do I
- 19:33Speaker 1: do now, he asked, sounding slightly panicked. What do we
- 19:37Speaker 1: do now? Grandpa? Move it around? Grandpa replied, long, slow
- 19:44Speaker 1: arcs from side to side. That's it, Cocoa, listen for
- 19:50Speaker 1: the beeps. The faster they are, the nearer the object.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Coco moved slowly, just as Grandpa has suggested, sweeping the
- 20:02Speaker 1: disk across the sand. Beep beep, beep, beep, beep beep bingo.
- 20:11Speaker 1: Dad said, I think you've found something, Coco, have a look.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Heart beating in his chest, Coco crouched down and began
- 20:21Speaker 1: to dig. After a moment, something silver caught the light
- 20:26Speaker 1: of the Koala moon. He lifted it carefully, a delicate
- 20:31Speaker 1: metal comb shaped like a seashell. He handed it to Dad,
- 20:37Speaker 1: who tucked it gently in the canvas bag and smiled.
- 20:41Speaker 1: A fine beginning, Coco, he said, well done.
- 20:47Speaker 2: They moved on. Beep beep, beep, beep beep beep.
- 20:54Speaker 1: This time a small spoon emerged, worn smooth with time.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Beep beep beep.
- 21:02Speaker 1: An old fish hook, curled and rusty, be bee beep,
- 21:08Speaker 1: a metal button, simple and round. Each discovery felt like
- 21:15Speaker 1: a small piece of a larger story, a tiny coup
- 21:19Speaker 1: in a great mystery. The canvas bag grew heavier as
- 21:24Speaker 1: they searched in silence, almost mesmerized by the steady rhythm
- 21:30Speaker 1: and hypnotic arch of the metal detector. And then suddenly
- 21:36Speaker 1: there came a different beep, a.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Beat beep, beep, beep beep.
- 21:43Speaker 1: The sound rang out, loud and insistent. Coco froze his heart,
- 21:49Speaker 1: giving a quick, hopeful thump that said, Grandpa quietly, sounds promising.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Cooko dropped to his knees at once, digging with renewed energy.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Dad joined him, and then Grandpa too, whose face looked
- 22:09Speaker 1: more useful than it had done in years, animated by
- 22:14Speaker 1: boyish energy from his younger days. Keep going, Michelle said,
- 22:20Speaker 1: Watching all the excitement from a short distance, his expression wrapped.
- 22:26Speaker 1: I think you're onto something here. Before long, the edge
- 22:31Speaker 1: of something solid appeared beneath the sand. Careful now, Grandpa murmured,
- 22:38Speaker 1: it will be fragile. Together they worked more slowly, brushing
- 22:45Speaker 1: and clearing away the sand until a small chest emerged,
- 22:51Speaker 1: old and weathered, Its metal corners softened by time. Coco
- 22:58Speaker 1: sat back, staring at it. A treasure chest, he said,
- 23:04Speaker 1: almost in a whisper. Your treasure chest, Grandpa, My treasure chest,
- 23:13Speaker 1: Grandpa replied, sounding awed, you found it, Coco. They carried
- 23:21Speaker 1: the precious chest to a flat stretch of sand. Then
- 23:25Speaker 1: Grandpa knelt beside it and lifted the latch. Coco leaned
- 23:30Speaker 1: a little closer, keen to find out what was inside.
- 23:35Speaker 1: The lid creaked open to reveal several rolls of tape.
- 23:40Speaker 1: Cocoa blinked, what are they? Grandpa picked one up, holding
- 23:46Speaker 1: it gently between his paws. His expression changed, not quite sadness,
- 23:52Speaker 1: not quite joy, but something deeper, something that seemed to
- 23:58Speaker 1: reach both backward and forward at once. Pieces of the past,
- 24:04Speaker 1: he said, quietly, of course I remember now it's a
- 24:11Speaker 1: memory box, because memories are my most precious treasure. These
- 24:18Speaker 1: are videotapes, Coco, videos of my childhood. But how to
- 24:24Speaker 1: play them? Michelle held up a flipper. As it happens,
- 24:30Speaker 1: he said, I have just the thing. They returned to
- 24:35Speaker 1: the lost Property office, where Michelle searched the store cupboard.
- 24:40Speaker 1: In a cloud of dust and cobwebs. He brought out
- 24:44Speaker 1: the ancient looking projector, along with four rickety deck chairs
- 24:49Speaker 1: and a small picnic table. Before long, the projector had
- 24:54Speaker 1: been set up against the pale face of the cliff.
- 24:58Speaker 1: The rock stood tall and smoothed, like a great blank
- 25:02Speaker 1: page waiting to be filled. The friend sat together on
- 25:07Speaker 1: the chairs, a plate of sandwiches and four mugs of
- 25:11Speaker 1: cocoa steaming on the table between them. Dad removed the
- 25:16Speaker 1: blanket from the canvas bag and handed it to Cocoa,
- 25:20Speaker 1: who cuddled up, cozy and content. Michelle threaded the first
- 25:26Speaker 1: tape with careful precision. The machine hummed to life. Its
- 25:32Speaker 1: quiet were steady and reassuring. A beam of light stretched
- 25:38Speaker 1: across the sand and touched the cliff, and then, almost
- 25:44Speaker 1: like magic, the past appeared. Her young Koala ran across
- 25:49Speaker 1: the beach, his movements full of energy and laughter, his
- 25:54Speaker 1: fur ruffled by the wind. Cocoa gasped Grandpa. Grandpa smiled softly,
- 26:05Speaker 1: that's me. The image flickered and danced, the memory alive
- 26:11Speaker 1: against the stone. The young Koala leaped over waves, built
- 26:17Speaker 1: a sand castle, chased seagulls along the shore. Cocoa watched
- 26:23Speaker 1: completely still. You were just like me, he said. Grandpa nodded,
- 26:32Speaker 1: looking wistful. Yes, Cocoa, I was just like you. Once
- 26:40Speaker 1: another film began, This time the young Grandpa was digging
- 26:45Speaker 1: in the sand, just as Coco had done, the metal
- 26:49Speaker 1: detector on his knees. Beside him stood an older Koala,
- 26:54Speaker 1: his own father, pointing and laughing as something small and
- 26:59Speaker 1: shiny was uncovered. Coco sighed how strange it was to
- 27:07Speaker 1: see Grandpa as a young Koala, and how comfortingly familiar
- 27:13Speaker 1: to He had done the same things, and had lived
- 27:17Speaker 1: the same days, and had been on the same adventures
- 27:22Speaker 1: as Coco. They were all connected by memories and love.
- 27:29Speaker 1: Coco leaned against his father, the metal detector, resting quietly
- 27:36Speaker 1: on his knees, feeling the joy of belonging to something
- 27:41Speaker 1: much bigger than himself. For some reason, he thought of
- 27:46Speaker 1: sleepy River, always moving, always carrying things with it, little
- 27:52Speaker 1: pieces of where it's been and everything it's seen. It
- 27:59Speaker 1: just keep going, Grandpa had said. It just keeps going,
- 28:05Speaker 1: passing its story along all the way to the sea.
- 28:10Speaker 1: It was a comforting thought. Coco smiled to himself. As
- 28:15Speaker 1: the Koala moon shone more brightly in the jet black sky.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Beneath his cozy blanket, He watched her silvery lights spread
- 28:26Speaker 1: across the water and touched the cliffs, almost like another projector.
- 28:34Speaker 1: He muttered a little sleepily. Now Grandpa followed his gaze
- 28:41Speaker 1: and chuckled, You're right, Coco, the Koala Moon has been
- 28:47Speaker 1: telling stories far longer than we have. The final film
- 28:54Speaker 1: flickered once twice, then faded. Cliff was just a cliff
- 29:02Speaker 1: once more. No one spoke for a while. They simply
- 29:08Speaker 1: sat together, listening to the tide, which moved in and
- 29:13Speaker 1: out as if the sea itself was breathing. Coco felt
- 29:20Speaker 1: a deep, peaceful stillness which seemed to belong to the
- 29:25Speaker 1: past as much as the present, as though he was
- 29:29Speaker 1: sitting not only at the end of his own day,
- 29:33Speaker 1: but at the end of Grandpa's long ago ones too.
- 29:39Speaker 1: It felt as if the laughter on the cliffs had
- 29:43Speaker 1: not quite faded, as if the young Koala in the
- 29:47Speaker 1: films still lingered in the air, just out of reach.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Coco snuggled deeper beneath the blanket, his eyes growing heavy
- 29:58Speaker 1: as he stared up at the I wonder how many
- 30:03Speaker 1: stars there are, he murmured. Dad shook his head fondly
- 30:10Speaker 1: and glanced at Grandpa, still asking questions. He said, even
- 30:17Speaker 1: at the very end of the day. Coco's eyes drifted
- 30:23Speaker 1: down to the pale stretch of beach. And how many
- 30:28Speaker 1: grains of sand, Grandpa robbed a little between his paws,
- 30:36Speaker 1: more than we.
- 30:38Speaker 2: Could ever count.
- 30:41Speaker 1: And how many koalas have sat right here in this
- 30:46Speaker 1: exact spot, Coco added, his voice barely more than a whisper.
- 30:55Speaker 1: The metal detector lay across his knees. Quiet. Now, it's
- 31:01Speaker 1: searching done for the day, no one replied. No one
- 31:07Speaker 1: needed to, because some things could be counted, and some
- 31:12Speaker 1: things could be found, but others were simply there to
- 31:18Speaker 1: be wondered about. And wonder Coco did about everything and
- 31:25Speaker 1: nothing until he drifted off to sleep. Now we are
- 31:32Speaker 1: sailing into a soft and peaceful sleep. Feel the soft
- 31:40Speaker 1: and cozy support of your bed. Feel the way your body,
- 31:48Speaker 1: heavy and happy with sleepiness, is being carried upon it.
- 31:57Speaker 1: It is as though you were being carried on gentle
- 32:00Speaker 1: ocean currents, on the rising and falling of waves. Feel
- 32:08Speaker 1: how they are lapping gently beneath you, bearing you into
- 32:15Speaker 1: the land of sleep. These waves carrying you are deep
- 32:25Speaker 1: and gentle, like our breath. Breathe with the waves, Breathe in.
- 32:35Speaker 3: And in, and.
- 32:41Speaker 1: They go in and out, in and out. Close your eyes.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Let your eye let's be heavy, that your whole body
- 33:07Speaker 1: relaxed as you sail into sleep. Feel your arms soft
- 33:19Speaker 1: and heavy, and your legs and feet soft and heavy too.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Let's pay some gentle attention to how our body is
- 33:37Speaker 1: are feeling. Keep your eyes closed, and that your mind
- 33:47Speaker 1: come unhooked from your head. Your mind is a magical thing.
- 33:56Speaker 1: It can stay inside your head, or it can travel
- 34:01Speaker 1: all around your body, like a little person wondering around
- 34:06Speaker 1: a house to check that all is well. Let your
- 34:12Speaker 1: mind travel first to your breath. Feel the breath moving
- 34:20Speaker 1: through your nose. Feel the breath moving into your chest
- 34:28Speaker 1: or into your tummy, making it rise and fall, Rise
- 34:37Speaker 1: and fall good. Just focus on your breathing. That's wonderful.
- 34:54Speaker 1: Now let your mind float down.
- 34:57Speaker 2: From your breath.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Let it travel down one of your arms. Feel the
- 35:06Speaker 1: sensation in your arm. Feel how it is heavy on
- 35:13Speaker 1: the bed or may be soft tucked underneath your head
- 35:17Speaker 1: as you sleep. Let your mind travel down your fingers. First,
- 35:29Speaker 1: let your mind wander down to the tip of your thumb.
- 35:35Speaker 1: Now down your first finger, Now your middle finger, now
- 35:46Speaker 1: your ring finger, and last but not least your pinky.
- 35:55Speaker 1: What does it feel like at the end of your pinky?
- 36:02Speaker 1: Bring your mind back up to your breathing and breathe
- 36:06Speaker 1: in and out. Breathe in and out. Now we're traveling
- 36:17Speaker 1: with our minds all the way down our other arm.
- 36:24Speaker 1: Let your mind go down each of your fingers on
- 36:29Speaker 1: that arm. First, let your mind wander down to the
- 36:37Speaker 1: tip of your thumb. Now down your first finger, now
- 36:45Speaker 1: your middle finger, now your ring finger. And now you're pinky.
- 36:56Speaker 1: Very good. Now, let your mind to come back to
- 37:01Speaker 1: your chest and let it sit there, soft and heavy,
- 37:08Speaker 1: right where your heart is. If you let your mind
- 37:15Speaker 1: rest there, you will even be able to feel the
- 37:19Speaker 1: gentle beating of your heart. Do you know what your
- 37:25Speaker 1: heart says as it's beating, It says, I love, I love,
- 37:33Speaker 1: I love. That's what everyone's heart beat says, I love,
- 37:42Speaker 1: I love, I love. And as everyone's heart beat says
- 37:49Speaker 1: that the world fills up with love. The world fills
- 37:55Speaker 1: up with each heartbeat, like a lake filling up with
- 38:00Speaker 1: the raindrops that fall from the sky. The lake of
- 38:07Speaker 1: love can never be too full, and it can never
- 38:13Speaker 1: be empty. The whole world is full of love. You
- 38:21Speaker 1: are loved. Your family love you, Your friends love you.
- 38:28Speaker 1: People all across the world love you. The animals in
- 38:33Speaker 1: the fields, and the birds in the trees, and even
- 38:38Speaker 1: the trees themselves. They all love you too, and we
- 38:45Speaker 1: love them back. That is the beautiful thing about love.
- 38:52Speaker 1: You can never give too much of it because it
- 38:57Speaker 1: can never run out. Love is like the water in
- 39:03Speaker 1: the lake. There will always be more of it. It
- 39:08Speaker 1: falls from the sky like rain and keeps us safe
- 39:12Speaker 1: and happy. You are safe, You are happy, You are loved.
- 39:27Speaker 1: While you're floating through your dreams, wisper your love to
- 39:31Speaker 1: the world. Say I love your world, and now listen
- 39:39Speaker 1: out here. The world say it back. The world is
- 39:45Speaker 1: saying I love you. The world is gentle, and you
- 39:54Speaker 1: are gentle too. The world is kind and you are
- 40:02Speaker 1: kind to the world is loved, and you are loved too.
- 40:15Speaker 1: The rain loves the ground that it falls upon, and
- 40:19Speaker 1: the ground loves the grass and trees and flowers that
- 40:23Speaker 1: grow up out of it, and the grass loves the
- 40:28Speaker 1: animals that walk upon it. And so the animals love
- 40:33Speaker 1: the world they wander through because it is so beautiful.
- 40:41Speaker 1: And the whole world loves you. Fear how your body
- 40:49Speaker 1: is drifting peacefully upon the gentle lake. Let any worries
- 40:57Speaker 1: that may have lingered from the day sail away from
- 41:00Speaker 1: your mind. Watch them disappear, like a whole host of
- 41:07Speaker 1: multi colored heathy and blooms being released into the sky.
- 41:15Speaker 1: Watch them as they go, as they soar up high,
- 41:21Speaker 1: smaller and smaller, They get smaller and smaller until they
- 41:30Speaker 1: are just little specks in the sky, and then they
- 41:36Speaker 1: are gone. You are safe, you are kind. There is
- 41:48Speaker 1: nothing to worry about as you drift into sleep, because
- 41:54Speaker 1: you are drifting.
- 41:57Speaker 2: On the lake of love.
- 42:02Speaker 1: You are safe, you are happy, You are loved. The
- 42:13Speaker 1: world is gentle, and you are gentle too. The world
- 42:19Speaker 1: is kind, and you are kind too. The world is loved,
- 42:29Speaker 1: and you are loved. To close your eyes. Let your
- 42:37Speaker 1: eyelids get heavy, Let your limbs get heavy too. Feel
- 42:47Speaker 1: your arms and legs falling heavily into your soft and
- 42:52Speaker 1: cozy bed. Feel your chest rising and falling with your breathing,
- 43:05Speaker 1: rising and falling like the waves on the lake of love. Sleep,
- 43:15Speaker 1: little one, You are safe, You are happy, You are loved.
- 43:27Speaker 1: There is more love in this world than there are
- 43:32Speaker 1: stars in the sky. There is more kindness in this
- 43:38Speaker 1: world than there are droplets of water in the entire lake.
- 43:46Speaker 1: The world is gentle, and you are gentle too. The
- 43:54Speaker 1: world is kind and you are kind to the world
- 44:02Speaker 1: is loved, and you are loved too. Good Night, little one,
