His welcome

Hello from Mossy

When a child welcomes Mossy, he says hello like this.

Mossy says: Hello there, I’m Mossy. I’m not very fast, but I always get where I’m going, and tonight I’ve come all the way to you. There’s no hurry at bedtime. Let’s take it slowly and enjoy every bit of the story.

Whichever style your child chooses, Mossy always looks like Mossy: a cream shell with one terracotta spiral, and a cushion of moss on top.

Welcoming Mossy

Mossy could join your child’s stories

Children earn stars by listening to stories and answering a few questions. When they’d like to welcome Mossy, a grown-up says yes, and he joins their stories from then on.

Welcoming Friends comes with a plan. On a free account, children still earn stars and keep them.
