(bright upbeat music) Hey, hey. It's me, it's JJ from CocoMelon. And I'm Dora from Headspace, and this is "Wiggle to Wind Down." ♪ Where we wiggle and stretch ♪ ♪ And take cozy, deep breaths ♪ ♪ Let's get ready for a story quest ♪ Tonight's story is "Bingo and Floppsy's Cozy Day." (keys chiming) Hi, friends. Guess what? You know my puppy dog Bingo? He's in tonight's story! You got it, JJ. In tonight's story, Bingo's staying at Grandma and Grandpa's while you go on a trip. And Bingo meets a big sleepy kitty cat named Floppsy. Yep, Floppsy shows Bingo her favorite game. (giggles) It's called Find the Warmest Coziest Place for a Nap. That's a pretty fun game, huh, JJ? Yeah. But before you can read the story, we have to do three things. Right. Do you remember them? Yes! First, we wiggle, wiggle, wiggle. Then we stretch. And last, we take cozy deep breaths. (breathes) And after each one, we get... A sleepy star! (bell chimes) And when we've got all three sleepy stars... (bells chiming) We'll be ready for tonight's story, "Bingo and Floppsy's Cozy Day." Well done, JJ. Friends, are you ready to earn our very first sleepy star? Oh yeah. I found a soft spot on the floor and I'm ready to wiggle. Perfect. Now remember, tonight's story is about a puppy dog. My puppy dog Bingo and a big kitty cat named Floppsy. That's exactly right. Do you know what sound a puppy dog makes? (JJ woofs) Yep. How about a kitty cat? (JJ meows) Right! Let's use our voices and quietly pretend to be a fluffy puppy dog. (Dora woofs) (gentle music) (JJ woofs) I'm a sleepy Bingo dog. Excellent. Now let's pretend to be a quiet, sleepy kitty cat. (Dora meows) (gentle music) (JJ meows) I'm a sleepy kitty cat. Wonderful puppy dogs and kitty cats, everyone. (gasps) Do you hear that? (gasps) Oh, it's time for a puppy dog and kitty cat wiggle party. Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle. That's right. Let's use our whole bodies to pretend we're puppy dogs and kitty cats. So let's get down on the floor so you can crawl on your hands and knees, just like a puppy or a kitty. Let's slowly crawl around and sniff for the perfect napping spot. Use your nose, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff. And see if you can find where the coziest spot might be. (giggles) Sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff, sniff. (laughs) I'm crawling around for the perfect napping spot. When you find one, let's crawl in a slow circle, just like a puppy dog getting ready to curl up. (woofs) I'm a puppy dog circling around my nap spot. (woofs) Perfect. Now let's pat pat pat with our hands like a kitty cat getting their blanket just right. (meows) I'm a cat patting my blanket. (gentle music) And stop. That was so fun. I got all my puppy dog and kitty cat wiggles out. Great...
