Here's to a great night sleep for your tamariki.
DO YOU WANT YOUR KIDS TO...
- Learn the life-altering skill of being able to calm their mind and ward off worries?
- Do you want them to develop a deep love of New Zealand's natural world?
- More than any of that, do you just want to them to GO. TO. SLEEP?
I hear you.
After years of the "you-again?" bedtime routine, I started looking for ways to help my son switch off and settle into sleep. Guided mindfulness for kids was a lifesaver - but they usually made me cringe. Years later... with a failed mindfulness start-up and a successful kids book under my belt, I'm combining my skills to create something that I hope will be a kids' and parents' favourite tool for bedtime calm.
I'M KRIS.
I'm a science journalist and children's author. My career has covered everything from Antarctic science to guided meditations. My first kids' book, Saving Wānanga, released in 2024, made the best kids' book lists for The Spinoff, The Listener and The Sapling. This audio series combines my love of science, nature and wellbeing with my experiences as the parent of a slightly wild boy who took ages to sooth into sleep mode.
MEET KIWI.
He's a little bit anxious. (You might be too if you were an endangered, flightless bird who couldn't see very well.) Kiwi is worried about every little noise in the forest, until Ruru arrives and teaches kiwi how to find a calm stillness by pretending to be a maunga (mountain).
Your kids will help Kiwi by following along with this simple mindfulness exercise and before you know it, they'll be falling asleep just like Kiwi.
