Help your child wind down after a high-energy day with some of the best bed time stories in history!
Children love a good story. Even more so when their mom or dad reads it to them. Reading bed time stories to your child is a delightful way to bond with them, as well as a good tool to encourage their love for reading and learning. And if that’s not amazing enough, reading to your child helps sharpen their memory, improve their vocabulary, and boosts their creativity.
Another great benefit to reading bed time stories to your little one is that it gets them in a calmer state, just in time for bed. Creating a consistent bed time ritual helps your child to sleep deeper and help them wake up more energized.

Bedtime Meditation Stories for Kids also comes complete with positive affirmations, so that they can wind down from a high-energy day and fall asleep faster and better.
In this fun and magical book, your child will:
- Fall asleep faster and have a deliciously relaxing night’s sleep, as they dream about their favorite characters

- Improve their sense of wellbeing, as well as their vocabulary and reading skills, so that they can succeed in both school and life
- And so much more!

They are the stories we've known since we were children: "Rapunzel", "Hansel and Gretel", "Cinderella", "Sleeping Beauty". But the works originally collected by the Brothers Grimm in the early 1800s are not necessarily the versions we heard before bedtime. They're darker and often don't end very happily - but they're far more interesting.

ストーリー
"The Story of Peter Pan", by James M. Barrie, is one of the most famous tales about youth and dream-like adventures; this classic adaptation of Barrie's play will let you fly on the wings of your imagination. "The History of Tom Thumb" was the first fairy tale ever printed in English. "The Three Sillies" is a very old folktale, and has been handed down over the centuries for its entertainment value. "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" is a classic folktale of which numerous versions are known; they all delight and educate children about the importance of boundaries and personal property. Last but not least, "Jack the Giant Killer" is a fascinating folk tale coming from the Middle Ages, set during King Arthur's reign; it shows how a young man uses clever tricks to outwit terrible giants and rid England of their terrible threats.
