Runaway Blanket

When bedtime arrives, a toddler insists that a missing blanket has set off on its own. The child recounts its imagined journey to each family member who tries to settle them, turning a familiar bedtime delay into a playful chase that reaches beyond the house and into the garden and down the road. The blanket’s need for a rest brings the tale back to the bedtime question, with the closing hint that the routine may need to be negotiated again tomorrow. A compact premise built around a child’s lively explanation and the comforts of bedtime.
