Short bedtime stories
Some evenings there is time for only a short story. Two or three minutes is enough to calm down, and a short story can still have a beginning, a little adventure and a gentle end.
When is a short story best?
- When the child is very tired.
- For toddlers, who listen for only a few minutes.
- When bedtime is already late.
- As a calm end after a busy day.
