Shhh! It’s Quiet Time!

Quiet Time Productions, LLC is pleased to announce the release of Grandpa Read’s Quiet Time Tales, a new collection of DVDs for children ages 2-8 that feature classic stories with original illustrations and charming songs to inspire a love of reading and ignite children’s imaginations.
In the tradition of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and Reading Rainbow, Quiet Time Tales is wholesome, educational children’s programming. Each of the DVDs in the collection contain five complete stories read aloud by the gentle character of Grandpa Read, played by Gary Sturm a grandfather of four, veteran actor and retired schoolteacher.
Dozens of illustrations commissioned specifically for the collection accompany the stories. At the end of each DVD, Grandpa Read sings a new original song. This combination has been observed to have a soothing effect on children and has resulted in an increase in children’s desire to be read to by parents and grandparents.
Children love Grandpa Read’s faithful canine companion, Champ, and the silly goldfish, Sparky and Wanda, that share Grandpa Read’s world and enjoy his stories.
The collection is unique in the area of children’s entertainment where frenetic animation, crazy sound effects and loud music are the norm in most children’s titles. In contrast, Quiet Time Tales’ combination of calm storytelling, charming illustrations and peaceful original songs was developed to address a need for down time in children’s lives by relaxing and soothing them during their daily quiet time and at bedtime.
Today, there is recognizable trend toward over-scheduling children’s lives with activities and lessons. Well-intentioned parents are eager to give their children the best start in life . But researchers who have studied this trend have found that over-scheduling – or “hyper-parenting” to use a term coined by Harvard psychologist Dr. Alvin Rosenfeld – leads to stress on the child and may result in low self-esteem, depression, anxiety disorders and physical ailments such as headaches and stomach aches.
By taking time every day to relax and recharge, researchers suggest that children can reduce their overall stress levels, increase their ability to cope with conflict and adversity and may even experience increases in creativity.
That’s where Grandpa Read’s Quiet Time Tales can help.
Ruth Buzzi, the five-time Emmy-nominated star of Sesame Street and an active children’s advocate notes, “In a busy world, Grandpa Read’s Quiet Time Tales provides the rare opportunity for kids to just sit still, relax, and let their imaginations grow with the nourishment of a soothing voice telling an entertaining, educational story.”
R.A. Logan, an entertainment industry veteran and the director of the series says, “I’m really proud of this accomplishment. Ever since my own daughter was young, it has been my dream to create a collection of all of our favorite children’s storie s – the stories that inspired a love of storytelling and reading in both of us. The release of Grandpa Read’s Quiet Time Tales is the fulfillment of that dream. I look forward to the chance to share these same classic stories, beautiful artwork and charming songs with my own grandchildren.”
Quiet Time Tales DVDs and CDs make great gifts for children and families and are terrific for grandparents, preschools, daycare, pediatrician’s offices and travel bags.

Ryan Doyle: Helping Families

I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2008 and during my junior year at the university I started a non-profit organization registered in the state of Michigan named Live to Give Foundation. I was 19 when I started sharing my vision of creating a non-profit that promised to show everything on video complete with the photos and music that make charitable giving emotionally charging. From every fundraising effort, to specific donators, to the families in need that we help, we show the world what is happening. My dream was not to raise money or to own my own business, but it was to connect the world in a PERSONAL way.

At Live to Give Foundation (L2G), we help families in their time of need in a personal way. The most common and watered down element that we as human beings have is family, therefore everyone can connect to helping families that are sharing hardship. In addition, the most distinguishing trait that we as human beings have is a need to personally and emotionally connect as social beings. These two factors helped me create a vision that aligns with my passion to change the world.
Since our launch in November of 2007, we have become a registered charity, applied for 501(c)3 status with the IRS, raised almost $20,000, helped 3 amazing families in dire need and inspired 8 team members soon to be 10 (of which 8 are under 23 years old) to join the team voluntarily . All of this has happened while we completed our college educations, held jobs and internships, and maintained a level of “normalcy” in the formative years that usually revolve around taring society down, rather than lifting it up. We have rallied college students around the state, entire congragations of churches, corporate sponsors like PetCo and Buffalo Wild Wings, and even our own Detroit Pistons of the NBA. Beyond these results, we have helped a very sick Bruce Scharfenberg get the tests needed for a heart transplant, we were able to provide 4 months of health insurance and a Christmas to remember with her 4 children for a terminal Melissia Kent and we have recently kept an entire Shuck family from living on the streets and homeless shelters for the past 3 months with an additional 6 months of housing in motion.
I hope this is what you are looking for. We can be found at www.livetogivefoundation.org and our movies can be found all over the website/social networks. I truly hope you will consider us for the website and what your company is doing means the world to startups like Live to Give Foundation. Thank you so much for your time and consideration! And remember:
Don’t just Pay, Pay it Forward. Don’t just Live, Live to Give!
Ryan Doyle and the entire Live to Give team
