Bedtime story
In shortA bedtime story is a calm, comforting story read to a child at the end of the day to help them wind down and transition to sleep.
The best bedtime stories are soothing rather than exciting, with a gentle arc that ends safe and calm. A recurring, familiar book becomes part of the routine that signals "time to sleep".
A personalized bedtime story - where the child says goodnight to their own world - can also ease common bedtime worries.
