Bedtime story book for toddlers


Bedtime Books for Babies and Toddlers – Happiest Baby

By Happiest Baby Staff

Storytime has to be the sweetest part of the bedtime routine. What’s better than cuddling up with a picture book that helps our little ones slow down, relax and ease into dreamland?

These 16 tried-and-true bedtime books are perfect for those last moments before drifting off to sleep—warm, soothing and sometimes silly, for going to bed with a smile on your face.

All the animals, from sheep to geese, are snuggling down with their mamas. Tender bedtime rhymes soothe like a lullaby and the beautiful illustrations are an invitation to sleep in this bedtime book.

This classic bedtime book comforts kids by saying goodnight to—and demystifying—each object in the bedroom, from chairs to a picture of bears.

You can’t go wrong with a Sandra Boynton board book. Here, she imagines a boat full of friendly animals going about their bedtime routines (gotta brush those teeth!) before rocking gently to sleep.

Another Boynton favorite turns bedtime into a party complete with song and dance moves. But don’t worry, the after-party takes place in dreamland.

In this bedtime book, a tricky gorilla steals the zookeeper’s keys and lets all the animals out of their cages. When the zookeeper’s wife discovers the animals napping in her bedroom, she gently leads them home so they can all get a good night’s sleep.

The reader is entrusted with a very important and difficult job—don’t let the pigeon stay up late! The crafty pigeon will use every excuse and stall tactic, so it won’t be easy, but it will be funny.

Patient Mr. Panda reminds his animal friends to follow the steps of their bedtime routines, like taking a bath and brushing teeth. Sloth and skunk make excuses, but cheerful Lemur sticks to the plan. (Let’s all be like Lemur.)

What better way is there to say goodnight than with tons of kisses? Count down from “10 little kisses on teeny tiny toes” and learn body parts and numbers along the way with this sweet bedtime book.

Are you more of a hugger? This day in-the-life of a busy bunny is chock full of hug breaks, especially at bedtime!

Cement mixers and crane trucks have bedtimes too in this popular bedtime book about things that go.

Everyone’s favorite toddler tiger wants to play, but it’s time for bed. Dad gently moves Daniel through bath, teeth, PJ’s, story and a song until he’s too sleepy to protest anymore.

Your little one falls asleep to the sound of your loving affirmations, like “I love you like mice love cheese! I love you like vines love trees!” in this bedtime book for babies.

A little owl resists bedtime, claiming he’s not remotely tired—despite all evidence to the contrary. Sound like anyone you know?

A little boy imagines himself as a robot powering down at bedtime. It’s hard to stop jumping and beeping, but by “turning off” each body part, he can finally achieve sleep.

For littles with the wiggles, learning these gentle and poetically expressed yoga poses is a great way to settle in for bed.

A hilarious twist on the traditional bedtime story has our child narrator sending her exhausted and haggard looking parents to bed, which requires taking away their computers, magazines, TV and cell phones. “Remain calm. Do not negotiate,” she advises. Sounds familiar.

15 Bedtime Books You Can Turn Into Terrific Sleep Training Tools

We’ve already said a lot (A LOT) on this site about bedtime – including when exactly bedtime should happen. We’ve also written a ton about bedtime routines – what bedtime routines should (and shouldn’t) look like, why a bedtime routine is key to sleep coaching, and more.

But here’s a part of most parents’ bedtime routines that goes overlooked as a sleep training tool: the bedtime storybook. Sure, most of us probably spend at least a few minutes reading to our little cherubs before tucking them in at night, but have you ever stopped and thought about how you can turn the bedtime story to your (sleep training) advantage?

You can.

Now, that’s not to say that you have to choose special “sleep-focused” books at bedtime – there’s a lot to be said for simply reading a good book to your kiddo, regardless of whether or not it mentions sleep! Reading is hands-down the best way to establish early literacy, and it makes for pretty fantastic parent-child bonding time, too.

But if you’re sleep coaching, you no doubt want to utilize every tool at your disposal to help the process along – and the bedtime books you choose can be powerful tools indeed. Read on for details!

WHY IT’S A GREAT SLEEP TRAINING TOOL: Have a toddler who’s fighting off bedtime? Saying “goodnight” to the things she encounters as she goes through her bedtime routine is actually a powerful way to help signal that it’s time to go to sleep.

As your child watches how all the animals sleep in their own special way, it can provide big reassurance that bedtime really is for sleeping.

Bedtime stories for children. ⭐😴Read online with pictures.

In this section we have collected interesting fairy tales from all over the world that are suitable for reading before bed. You can read them online and completely free. These small instructive and kind stories will help children calm down after a stormy day and tune in to rest.
In bedtime stories you will not find cruelty and frightening characters. Only light plots and pleasant characters.
At the bottom of each fairy tale there is a hint for which age it is intended. nine0005

An interesting fairy tale is that part of childhood that stays with us forever, even when childhood is gone. This is a magical world that is wide open in front of the baby, and acquaintance with it begins with a short and sweet bedtime story.

At what age to read fairy tales to a child

There is no strict age limit in reading fairy tales to a child. Reading for a child is primarily an opportunity for emotional intimacy with an adult. Even if not a word is clear yet, the familiar timbre of the voice, the measured rhythm soothe the baby and stimulate its development. That is why psychologists recommend reading fairy tales even to babies. The main condition: the process should bring pleasure to both the adult and the baby. nine0005

The benefits of reading fairy tales

A bedtime story read by a parent is a powerful stimulus for the child's development, the child's wide opportunities in the following areas: imagination; fantasy; creative thinking; speech skills; emotional development; the ability to find a way out of problem situations.

Unlike cartoons, a fairy tale does not present the child with ready-made images and the world invented by the artist, but invites him to think, think out and imagine what is not in the illustrations. nine0005

Simply put, we read to children at night and at the same time unleash their creativity. The next step is the first children's tests of themselves as an author and artist, but that will come later. And now such familiar and at the same time amazing short bedtime stories come to the aid of parents.

Bedtime stories - what should they be?

It often happens that every day a baby asks for the hundredth time to read a familiar fairy tale to him, not wanting to listen to any others. nine0005

It's not worth arguing and trying to read something new - a bedtime story exists just to lull and give pleasant dreams. So, it should be: short; calm; kind; without dynamic details in the plot, but with a happy ending.

Repeated repetition of the same situation (a familiar room, a favorite blanket and a soft toy, next to it is a mother reading a familiar fairy tale) turns into a kind of ritual for the baby, which has a calming effect. It helps relieve the emotional stress that has accumulated over a long day. nine0005

Short stories on our website

The Short Bedtime Stories section presents famous works by Russian and foreign authors that have become favorites for children all over the world.

Magic little men created by Astrid Lindgren, Donald Bisset's kind tigers, Sergei Kozlov's inseparable Hedgehog and Bear cub - these and other characters are looking forward to meeting young readers.

Here you will also find folk tales and illustrated works by Vladimir Suteev. Kids will be delighted with simple instructive stories and colorful pictures created by a real Master. nine0005

Hints on the site

The free bedtime stories presented on our site are so diverse that sometimes it can be difficult to find the right one. To help parents, we have developed a convenient search engine that allows you to view the parameters of a fairy tale without opening it: age of readers; reading time; short description; popularity indicator; illustration.

However, not every modern mother can boast even a small set of lullabies and fairy tales. And not every dad can easily and quickly navigate the choice of the right book for his child in the store.

Each child's age requires its own approach: if a lullaby is enough for babies, then older children sometimes need to use a good example with an interesting story to tell about the need to close their eyes every night. To help you, lulling the sleepless, this selection. nine0005

“Why are you not sleeping?” - the answer to this question, which occupies all the parents in the world, is trying to find dad Big Bear. He, in no way manages to persuade the Bear cub to fall asleep. And what does he not do, responding to the complaints of his son, who is afraid of the dark!

The author of this fairy tale is a two-time winner of the Smarties awards, the Kurt Maeschler Prize, and the G.Kh. Andersen. A kind and touching story of the relationship between an adult and a child is beautifully illustrated by watercolor drawings by the artist Barbara Firth. For illustrations for this book at 19In 1988, she received the Kate Greenway Medal, Britain's most prestigious award for illustrators. And in 2013, the British newspaper The Times called the book “Why are you not sleeping?” "the most perfect children's picture book ever written." This book, which has already become a classic of "sleep" books, is itself like a lullaby.

How often children stubbornly deny the obvious! And what should unfortunate parents do in this case? Especially when it comes to something as important as sleep. With children's stubbornness, which psychologists call "meaningless" and which peaks at the age of about 2.5 years, all moms and dads face. In the pursuit of self-affirmation and self-manifestation as a person, the baby, at such moments, does not agree even with what is completely clear and understandable to him. And the task of wise parents is to understand this and help the baby get out of the situation without blaming him. Here, for example, is how the father of the little Owl, who is desperately struggling with sleep, did it. He knows the secret of how to put his son to bed! nine0005

Jonathan Allen's Naughty Owl continues his journey through the books in the series. And again he is stubborn, and again it is not clear from what. Maybe he really doesn't want to sleep?

The author devoted a whole series of books to children's denials: "I'm not Santa Claus!", "I'm not cute!". And they are all about a very nice little owlet. The entire Owlet series is kind and funny stories, ideal for reading at night, when the baby needs to calm down and tune in to rest. Children recognize themselves in a little stubborn, which allows them to look at what is happening from the side and, perhaps, change for the better. nine0005

There are such glorious books that you just don't want to let go of your hands. Because the worst mood after reading them disappears, and the world around becomes brighter.

Poor Memuli is afraid of everything in the world, especially at night... For example, she is afraid to go to the toilet, because a green crocodile may be hiding in the toilet bowl, she is afraid of bath foam, darkness and even strawberry jelly. As well as things moving in her room in the dark and shaggy dust crawling out from under the bed.
