Audio bedtime stories
An audio bedtime story lets the child close their eyes and listen. A calm voice, a gentle pace and a story that ends quietly make listening a good way to settle down.
Why listen to a bedtime story?
- The child can rest with eyes closed.
- A calm voice slows down the evening.
- Parents can listen too, side by side.
- Listening builds vocabulary and imagination.
