A fairy tale for children who can't sleep
- Grandma, a fairy tale!
Two large sly eyes look out from under the covers. Grandmother sits in a chair nearby, habitually picks up knitting.
- Well, listen. Only an agreement: until I finish it - do not sleep!
In the eyes of resentment - who is going to sleep?
The thread winds along the knitting needles, the loop lies down after the loop, word by word ...
... A hedgehog runs along a forest path, and towards him - a Tale. The hedgehog was frightened, curled up into a prickly ball and lies, waiting for what will happen next.
The fairy tale also waited a little, and she became bored. They do not like fairy tales if there is no one to listen to them.
- A hedgehog, a hedgehog, - says the Tale, - do not be afraid, I'm not scary. I'm talking about apples in general.
The hedgehog immediately heard about apples. He stuck his nose out from under the thorns and one eye.
What kind of apples are you talking about - green or red?
- Which one do you like more?
- I am red, with a green side. Or not, green with red ... Or ..., - Then the hedgehog thought, even lowered the thorns and stood up on all four paws. - No, I generally like all apples more. Especially sweet ones.
- Well, then I'm talking about all kinds of sweet apples. How they grow on a tree and fall down themselves. To make it easier for hedgehogs to collect them. And also about how dad and mom hedgehogs carry apples to their burrows for their hedgehogs. And about what a warm mink they have, under a bunch of autumn leaves ...
Here the Tale fell silent, and looks at the hedgehog. And he doesn't even listen anymore. He closed his eyes - dreaming. I even dropped the mushroom that I was bringing home.
And just a hare gallops past, carrying a carrot, which he dug up in a neighboring garden. He was out of breath, barely jumped away from the summer residents. Greedy! Carrots spared one hare! Nearly ran into a hedgehog. The one in the middle of the path is dreaming - he sees nothing.
- Well, things, - says the hare, - What happened to the hedgehog?
- He listens to me.
- And who are you?
- I am a fairy tale about a carrot, how it grows in the middle of a clearing, and hares can carry it as much as they want. And there are no summer residents there - only hares and carrots. And the carrot is sweet ... And a lot of it, drag-I don’t want to ...
The hare sat down next to the hedgehog, closed his eyes, folded his paws, one ear up, the other lowered. Dropped a carrot on the grass. Dreaming…
The story got boring again. Looks, past the redhead runs. The fox that is. He doesn’t even run, but he seems to be walking. But it doesn't come close.
And the Tale here, as it were, to itself:
- ... And there were no hunters at all in that forest, but there were a lot of hares and hedgehogs who were not at all afraid of foxes. So it was easy to catch them. And they were delicious...
The fox came closer, sat on her fluffy tail, licking her lips. And with his eyes he squints at a hare with a hedgehog - a fairy tale or not a fairy tale - but they look very appetizing. She moved closer to them, then a little more. She stretched out her paw, but like a hare - tsap! Yes, it was not there. She grabbed something, and this is a carrot. Once again - wow! This is dry mushroom. Fox to the Fairy Tale - jump. And that and the trace caught a cold - only a cloud of fog and the grass is wet. And on the grass traces - hare and hedgehog. Only where there - you will not catch up already.
The fox snorted offendedly, lay down under a bush and fell asleep.
And the Tale is already right there again, sitting on a branch, singing:
- Bye, bye, bye - bye, sleep Alice, fall asleep ...
… Knitting needles fell out of grandmother's hands, tinkled. Grandmother shuddered and opened her eyes.
In the crib next to the chair, the baby was sniffling. It's been a breeze for a long time, apparently. Nearby, on a pillow, a hedgehog and a hare were sleeping, and a red-haired muzzle peeked out from under the pillow. They all dreamed something very good.
Meditative tales for falling asleep
gnome
(Vera Spiranskaya)
The light is slowly fading away. The stars are shining in the dark sky. There are many, many. But only one shines so brightly and gently on you. After all, every man has his own star. You have it too. A little gnome lives on it. This is your Gnome. He has kind eyes and gentle little hands. White beard, and a cap on his head. Blue, pink, yellow ... How many stars in the sky, so many colors. At the end of the cap is a tiny silver bell. The blouse is belted with a strap, and the buckle shimmers with a mysterious moonlight. And on the feet - shoes with gold bows.
You go to bed. The head touches the pillow, and your star extends its rays towards you. This is a star ladder, along which your Gnome hurries to you.
Do you hear? Top-top-top... This Gnome is hurrying up the starry staircase towards you. And his shoes bring you sleep, turning your pillow into a soft white cloud. It gently rocks you on the rays of your star.
The little hands of the Gnome gently stroke your head, eyes, cheeks. He loves you, whispers softly in your ear all night good tales. Quietly. Only you. After all, this is your Gnome. He tells how during the day your little star bathes in the golden rays of the Good Sun. What magical flowers grow in his starry garden, how many sunbeams run through their petals. What fabulous songs are sung by his friends - birds. With what love and care he looks after you all day! And how patiently it waits for the evening to come down to you from the star, to hear your breath, to feel the warmth of your skin... And to talk, talk to you...
