Kidsongs: Good Night, Sleep Tight is the third entry of Kidsongs Music Video Stories released in April 1986. It was based on the Educational Songs cassette of Small World from the Sing & Multiplex from Ivory Records along with Kidsongs: A Day at Old MacDonald's Farm and Kidsongs: What I Want to Be.
Plot[]
The video starts off with the Kidsongs Kids singing "Ring Around the Rosey" and "Pat-A-Cake" while playing around in the park. Dusty couldn’t wait for bedtime to come, but Sandy tells Dusty that they have to wait until the kids get tired out and go home for dinner. Moments later, the Kidsongs Kids sang "A Tisket, A Tasket" and "Let Us Dance, Let Us Play". Finally, the kids went home to get ready for their dinnertime with their parents as they begin to sing "Our House".
As the parents were singing, Jimmy and his parents watched the campfire, Steven & Robby are setting up a dinner table as their parents looked out the window, Todd & Linda got a carousel as a present, Wendy & April accidentally broke the dish while they’re putting away the dishes, and Kathy's mother made her cookies so Kathy can enjoy.
Sandy and Dusty decided to review their bedtime techniques by singing "Tomorrow is a Dream Away".
