How it works
You tell us about your child once. We write something new for them every single night.
Their name, age, what they love: dinosaurs, space, their best friend Mia, their dog called Biscuit. The more you tell us, the more personal the story.
Every day, we craft a brand new adventure built around your child's world. Their name. Their interests. Their life, woven into a tale they'll actually want to hear.
At your chosen time each evening, the story arrives ready to read. Open your email, read aloud, lights out. The hardest part of bedtime, solved.
See it for yourself
Every story is written fresh. No templates. No name-swaps. Your child isn't just mentioned. They're the hero, making real decisions, going on real adventures built around what they actually love. And the story grows up with them: short and simple for your youngest, richer and longer as they get older.
Baby Finn was ready for sleep. His eyes were heavy, heavy, heavy.
Where does the moon go when you sleep?
The moon slides behind the big soft clouds. It waits there, very quietly, while all the little ones rest.
The wind knows too. It shhhhhhhhs through the trees, rocking the leaves back and forth, back and forth. "Sleep now," it says. "Sleep now. Sleep now."

Arlo was lying on his tummy on the rug, nose almost touching the track, watching his little red train go round and round. Round and round. Round and…
It stopped. Its light blinked. Once. Twice. And then, very slowly, it began to go backwards.
Arlo had never seen his train do that before. Not once, not in his whole life, which was quite a long time, because he was nearly four.
"Whiskers," he whispered. "Look."

Priya was supposed to be brushing her teeth, but instead she was standing at her bedroom window with a toothbrush hanging out of her mouth, staring at the sky.
"Buddy," she said, through a mouthful of toothpaste. "The moon hasn't moved."
Buddy, her scruffy little dog, put his paws up on the windowsill beside her and looked unimpressed, mostly because Buddy did not know very much about the moon.
But Priya did. Priya knew that the moon was 240,000 miles away, and that it did not, under any circumstances, get stuck behind the big oak tree in the park.

Jasper had been working on Wobble for three weeks, and he had exactly one job to do before the biggest match of the year: switch it on.
"This," he told Theo, holding up the small box-shaped robot with its single glowing camera-eye and a speaker duct-taped to its chest, "is going to be the best match commentary in the history of our garden."
Theo, lacing up his boots on the back step, looked sceptical. "Last time it called a corner kick 'a tragedy of historic proportions.'"
"That was a bug. I fixed it."

What parents say
"Very creative and personal stories. I'm not always home for the bedtime routine but when I am I love reading my son his bedtime story — StorySpins is a fun addition. Highly recommend trying it out."
"StorySpins is so requested in my household that I've actually had to sign up twice so I get two stories a day — because one at bedtime apparently isn't enough."
"The minute I say story time, my kids' eyes light up. They basically jump into their pyjamas and into bed because they want to hear it so badly."
