Description

Fairy tales from past centuries are often unsuitable as bedtime stories. They may be too long, too gruesome or contain inappropriate themes. Short of exhaustively reading and checking volumes of fairy tales for their suitability, length, and boredom factor, what can a parent do?

The answer is to read a KidSlumber Bedtime Story.

Each story is purpose-written as a bedtime story and takes about 10-12 minutes to read. Each story has humor, rhyme and usually a moral.

In KidSlumber stories no-one dies, no child is abandoned by its parents, nor are the stories saccharine sweet or baby-ish. Think Grimms Fairy Tales without the gore and Disney without the dark themes.

The stories are designed to encourage interaction between the child and the parent/reader, as each story contains some elements that are likely to be unfamiliar to the child, (as well as some elements to prevent the parent/reader from falling asleep).

KidSlumber stories are available in all major digital formats, downloadable straight to your mobile device/e-reader/pc.

The stories are ideal for back-lit devices, as a story can be read with the lights out, making it easier for the child to become sleepy.

For children 5-10+
