Music Hello, this is your fairy grandmother and we're going to go on a wonderful journey, a pretend journey, far away through the skies and into dreamland where all our pretends come true. But first of all, you've got to get into a very relaxed position. Wiggle yourself down into your chair or down into your bed because we're going to close our eyes and go flying far away, far away among the stars in our spaceship. Now if you're comfortable, let every nerve and muscle relax all over your body. Let your arms hang down loose by your side and let your feet just kind of lay there. Now close your eyes down. Close them tightly down like you couldn't open them even if you wanted to because we need them closed to go to Greenland. Now I want you to take a nice deep breath.

Hold it for just a minute, and now blow it all out. And and just relax you're going deeper and deeper into pretend land pretend you're watching a TV screen with your favorite program on it you choose your favorite program. And I'm going to count down from 10 down to 1. And we're going to pretend that we have 10 stair steps. And we're going to start at the top on 10 and we're going all the way down to 1. And when we get down to one we'll be standing at the ocean side in the sand at the beach and you'll be able to look out across the water and see oh my you can see almost forever if you look with your eyes closed Now let's start down the stair step.

10, moving down now. Moving down, down, down the stair step. 9, moving on down deeper and deeper toward the ocean 8, deeper and deeper, more and more relaxed 7, easily, gently just floating down the stairs 6 every muscle, every nerve and muscle all the way relaxed Five, halfway down the stairs now, almost to the beach where we can start our journey. Four, farther and farther down the steps, closer and closer to the beach, more and more relaxed. more and more relaxed 3, 2, almost there now on the next step we'll be to the beach and I'll say gently sleep and dream and you'll know that it's time to be your most relaxed with your eyes closed 2, 1 to one gently dream pretend and dream all relaxed all over your body you're all relaxed and now the dreams are starting we're starting oh look look in your pretend world leave your eyes closed oh there is a spaceship a flying spaceship coming toward us on the beach.

Oh, it is so beautiful. It is silver and round and it gleams in the sunlight. Oh, how special and how wonderful. edge is covered in light. Red and green, yellow and blue, and they're flashing and blinking, and they're turning so fast. Oh, it's getting closer. Oh, how wonderful we can see the people. Oh, they're smiling at us. They're people from our pretend world. And we can go on wonderful journeys. They're going to let us go on their spaceship. It's getting closer. And closer.

And there it is, sitting down right at the edge of the water, where the waves come up and wash over the legs of the spacecraft even. And look, a door is opening. And some stairs are coming down. down and some beautiful beings are standing in the door and they're saying to us please come take a ride in our spaceship we're friends we love you just like mommy and daddy love all their special, special people. So we get up, and we walk across the sand, and we go up into the spaceship. And when we get to the top of the stairs, and into the spaceship, they show us this wonderful, wonderful, comfortable bed that makes into a chair and they tell us to settle down our bodies into the chair and we do!

It's as soft as a cloud and they tell us just to lay back and relax that we'll be able to see everything, everything in the universe. But first, they want to talk to us. They want to tell us that we are nice people. You're a perfect person. Everybody loves you. Mommy and daddy love you. And you're resting so quietly. You're so sleepy.

Sleepier and sleepier. farther and farther into our pretend dream world Yes, everybody sends love to you and you send love back to them Because you know that the nicer you are to other people They'll be nice to you right back you write back so you only send out loving nice things to people you do nice things for people because they love you and they like it when you do nice things for them You're a special, special person. There's only one person like you in all the universe. And your fairy grandmother loves you, and your fairy grandfather loves you.

And your brothers and your sisters love you, if you have any. And mommy and daddy especially love you. They want only the best things for you. Sometimes when they yell at you it's because they want you to be as special as you can be and they're afraid you may learn bad habits. So sometimes they yell at you so they can teach you good habits you like good habits good habits and doing good things make you feel good you like to feel good so you tell everybody you love them and maybe you put your arm around them and hug them a little bit we warm fuzzy huggies make us feel good so you send out all those loving warm fuzzies and kisses and everybody loves you back again because when you do nice things people do nice things back to you.

But now the windows are all open and we can see all around us. The more exciting it gets. You feel the hum of the motors. And the lights begin to blink. And the motors begin to whirr. And the outside of the spacecraft is beginning to turn. And we're lifting off the ground. We're moving up into the clouds. Up through the clouds. Oh, the fluffy white clouds are going by us and we're zooming up into the sky.

Into the beautiful blue sky. And we're going faster. We're going faster. Oh, and below us we can see all the ocean. Look! We can see the people down on the beach. They're just tiny little specks now. And we can see the boats floating around on the ocean. But we're flying like a bird. Oh, we're free and flying like a bird and we can go anywhere we want to go. We're flying over the treetops now. Look, look! The trees are flying by beneath us. So green and beautiful and the meadows. Look, they're flowers. Beautiful colored flowers. And now we're flying on. There are other spaceships up here but we're passing them and we're waving to them as we go by and now we're flying on past the stars on past the stars oh and our dreams are becoming our very very own it's like looking at a moving picture and we can be anything we want to be.
