BabySparkles start to explore


The BabySparkles slept in their new home for the first time. Soon, they would get used to the bright light by staying in their dark home during the day. When the stars would come out, so would the BabySparkles. Night time in this strange land was a lot closer to their old home on the moon. So they started to explore their new world at night.

Onyx flew out in the evening twilight and he was followed by the rest of his sisters. Onyx was always the one to go first since he was the boy. They were out looking for fun. It didn't take them long to run into SparkleBerry. All their question came out at the same time. SparkleBerry just laughed as he was not able to understand a single one.

"Slow down", he laughed.

They all stopped talking and looked at each other. Sapphire started to speak first.

"SparkleBerry, what do you call this place?", asked Sapphire

"We call it Berry Patch.", he said. "It is full of all kinds of berries. My favorite is the Plumnickle berry. This part of the forest is full of all my friends and anything you would like to eat. Here, Sapphire, try a Plumnickle berry. She smiled really big and shared this delicious treat with all her sisters and brother. This was going to be a really fun place to live.

"Where is your family?", asked Ruby.

"I will let you meet them sometime." "They will enjoy you a lot", smiled SparkleBerry.

"Are you really strong and tough?", said Onyx.

"Not, so much.", responded SparkleBerry. "I get along with everyone." "I just like to eat."


"Enough questions.", said SparkleBerry. "It is time for me to go to sleep now. You can tell me all about the BabySparkles tomorrow. Have fun tonight but be careful."

Making new friends


A loud crashing through the nearby bushes sent Mama into the nearest hollow tree. The kids and Papa followed in a straight line right behind her. As the crashing sound came closer to the tree, Papa peered out the opening and the kids huddled together in the back.

In the dark of the tree hollow, the kids and Mama could just make out a pair of eyes. She could see that those eyes were just as scared as her family.

"Don't be afraid.", Mama said in her best soothing voice. "We would not hurt you."

"You are a strange looking bee.", said Bernie.

"We are not a bee." "We are Sparkles and these are my BabySparkles.", smiled Mama moonlight. "We come from that big light you see in the night sky."

"Oh, the moon?", said Bernie. "You must be tired." "That looks so far away."

"We didn't fly that whole way.", laughed Mama, "We took a ride on a really large creature."

Another large crash and the whole tree shook. The BabySparkles were really scared now.

"Don't worry.", smiled Bernie. "That is just SparkleBerry the bear coming to get some honey." I will fly out and tell him to be more careful." With that he left their tree with a strange buzzing sound. After he left, Papa came over to Mama. This looks like a safe place to stay for a while. Why don't we make a place for the children to sleep. So, Mama set about making a home.

Raspberry Roodles and Blackberry Bears












Raspberry Roodles and Blackberry Bears
Live on the mountain
and hang out in pairs

The Roodles are red and bears have black hair
They really look different
but neither one cares

Raspberry Roodles dance and plant flowers
wrap things in green bows
play in rain showers

While Blackberry Bears skip and sing loud
wrap things in pink bows
ride a rain cloud

Both of them happy and this you can see
So look really close
in a plumnickle tree

Little ones came from this wonderful match
time to grow happy
and one day did hatch

Blackberry Roodles and Raspberry Bears
the sweetest thing found
on earth anywhere





About me

About me
My name is Allison and I am a social worker helping special needs children in the Appalachian Mountain region of Tennessee and Virginia. I guess you could call me a hillbilly since we live in the mountains. When I have some spare time, I work on the BabySparkles and their story.

BabySparkle Sparklegraphs

The baby sparkles use their lights differently than the common on-off blinking of the standard firefly.
They sign complex patterns that are called sparklegraphs. These sparkgraphs are examples of their emotions, their names, and the things they like to do.
