As we are writing this new CD to help children sleep, it helps me realize the importance of transitions. Our first version has short transitions between the story and the song, and I was aware how much more relaxing a 12 seconds of transition is than 2 seconds.
I also notice how children are much happier when there is transition time between one activity to the next activity. And I think I am happier when I have some transition time. I notice it more in others, when my husband comes up from work to dinner, I can see his head is sometimes still at work, rather than with us. I suspect the same is true of me when I move from one thing to another without transition time.
