Peter’s Patch of Peace (Listening Glow) | Max & Lumi Bedtime Story | Beatrix Potter’s Peter Rabbit

Settle into a calm bedtime story inspired by The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter — designed to help children slow down, feel safe, and begin drifting toward sleep.

This is The Listening Glow, the first and gentlest telling of Peter’s Patch of Peace, a soft re-imagining of the classic Peter Rabbit story, created especially for bedtime.

Designed for children aged 4–7, this episode introduces the Magic Word of the Week: Wisdom — not as rules or lessons, but as the quiet feeling that helps us pause, breathe, and choose calm when the world feels busy.

🌿 About tonight’s story

In this peaceful bedtime version, Peter is no longer rushing through Mr. McGregor’s garden. Instead, he is invited to slow down — to notice the grass beneath his paws, the warm evening air, and the comfort of finding a quiet place to rest.

Inspired by Beatrix Potter’s The Tale of Peter Rabbit, this story keeps the heart of the original — the garden, the little blue jacket, the sense of adventure — while gently reshaping it into a safe, cosy bedtime experience.

There is:
• no peril
• no chasing
• no urgency

Only the feeling of finally being still.

✨ Magic Word of the Week: Wisdom

In this Listening Glow, children are gently introduced to the word Wisdom — understood not as “being clever,” but as knowing when to slow down.

Wisdom is felt through:
• pausing instead of rushing
• taking a calm breath
• listening to the body when it feels tired

Children are invited to think the word quietly, letting its meaning settle naturally — without being asked to explain or remember anything.

🌟 The Listening Glow

This episode is part of the Max & Lumi Three Glows bedtime rhythm.

Listening Glows are designed to:
• help children settle their bodies
• shift from daytime energy into evening calm
• encourage stillness and relaxed listening

Nothing needs to be understood yet.
This is simply a moment to rest and listen.

🎧 Designed for sleep (not stimulation)

This video is intentionally calm and screen-safe:
• Slow narration (around 100–120 words per minute)
• Soft, cosy language inspired by the countryside world of Beatrix Potter
• Gentle breathing cues woven naturally into the story
• Minimal animation, followed by a gradual fade to black so eyes can close early

Many children become sleepy during this episode — and that is exactly how it is meant to be used.

📖 Inspired by a beloved classic

The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter has comforted families for generations.

Peter’s Patch of Peace honours that legacy — carefully adapted for bedtime, where wisdom feels like warmth, safety, and coming home.
