Tonight’s bedtime for your newborn

A short story and a lullaby, read and sung with your baby in your arms. It takes about 5 minutes, and it doesn’t matter if they drift off halfway.

About 5 minutes, in this order. There’s something different each night.

  1. 1. Read a story

    Settle in a chair or on the bed, with the big light off and a lamp on low.

  2. 2. Sing a lullaby

    Hold them close and sway as you sing. Once you know the words, put the phone down.
