Enjoy the immersive rendition of Margaret Wise Brown's classic bedtime tale, Goodnight Moon while interacting and playing with characters and images from the story's visual universe.
Goodnight Moon is a timeless bedtime story, read to generations of people for 76 years, and now the story is told through an immersive and interactive digital experience at Spark. Get fully immersed in the story through state-of-the-art technology and art camera systems spanning nearly 3,000 sq ft.
Begin the Goodnight Moon experience by learning about the science of sleep, before entering the main exhibit room, where guests can digitally paint in the story scene around them. Once the room is filled with colour, it's time to settle in for story time as you've never experienced before.
In short, quite possibly! A recent study of both rural and urban settings has shown interesting synchronicity between circadian rhythms and phases of the lunar cycle. On average, people sleep less and go to bed later, the night before a full moon.
Nightmares are simply dreams within the REM stage of sleep that have negative emotional effects – and most are absolutely no fun. They may be the body’s way of relieving stress or the pressures of the day. In other instances, they are brought on by new medications, irregular sleep or mental health disorders.
Forget cozy comforters or plush pillows. In the microgravity of space, “lying down” just isn’t possible – in fact, there is no real up or down! Astronauts in the International Space Station (ISS) sleep in small pods, or strap their sleeping bags to the floor or a wall so they don’t drift away (as they drift away).
