Before your child listens
- Choose a calm, comfortable environment — ideally at bedtime, with your child settled in bed.
- Headphones are optional. The session works equally well through a speaker placed nearby.
- You may wish to stay with your child as they listen, particularly the first time.
- Do not play this session while travelling in a vehicle, cycling, or in any situation where your child needs to remain alert.
- If your child has any health concerns that may be relevant, please consult your GP or health visitor before use.
Frequently asked questions
How does my child access the session?
After purchase, the session will appear in My Sage Space. Sign in with the email address used at checkout and verify with a one-time code. You can then play the session for your child directly from the library. The session is streamed — no file is downloaded to your device.
What age is this suitable for?
This session is designed for children aged approximately 4 to 10 years, though children outside this range often enjoy it too. You know your child best. If you have any concerns about suitability, please consult your GP or health visitor.
Can my child listen every evening?
Yes. Your session remains available in My Sage Space for as long as your entitlement is active. Many families find it most effective when used as a consistent part of the evening routine — the familiarity of a repeated session can itself become a calming cue for children.
Is this different from The Sleepy Star Adventure?
Yes. Both sessions share the same calm style and aim — helping children relax and settle at bedtime — but each tells a completely different story. The Moonlight Forest takes children on a woodland journey by night, while The Sleepy Star Adventure follows a little star across the sky. Some families use both in rotation.
What if my child falls asleep before it finishes?
That is perfectly fine — and quite common. The session is designed to encourage relaxation and calm, and if your child drifts off before it ends, that is a natural outcome. You can simply pause or let it finish quietly.
