A Winter Solstice Story for Kids of All Ages
Curious Bunny Navigates the Longest Night of the Year
Buy me a coffee here. Thank you for empowering mother’s voices!
Once upon a time, there was a very curious bunny. So curious, in fact, that this became her name. She lived with her two mama bunnies in a forest filled with many bunny friends and their families. Her grandmother bunny lived in a tree nearby.
One day Curious Bunny went exploring around the forest. She ended up jumping further and farther than she had ever been before. She looked all around and didn’t recognize any of the trees anymore. She called out for her mama bunnies and didn’t hear either mama chime back. She hollered for her neighbor bunnies, and still no response. Then she cried out for her grandmother bunny. It was completely silent. She had hopped so far from home that no one could see her or hear her.
Nighttime was coming. In fact, it was Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year. Curious Bunny curled up at the base of a tree for warmth. Wise Owl, who was sitting in the tree branch above, looked down and saw Curious Bunny all alone.
