for the last twenty minutes of the day
The bedtime routine they’ll actually ask for.
Bath, teeth, jammies, one story, one song, lights out. Your routine, exactly the way your family does it — printed as a book you and your little one read together, starring them and the animal they won’t sleep without.
Read her book
Kids repeat what they can predict. When the steps are a story — their bath, their song, the goodnight they know is coming — the routine belongs to them, and the last stretch of the day starts to belong to both of you.
yours will be the only one like it
Their routine, as pages
First, your routine becomes the pages.
- 1The sun is down, Theo. Bath time — quick like a fish.
- 2Teeth, top and bottom, while Fox counts to twenty.
- 3Jammies — the rocket ones tonight.
- 4One story in the big chair. Fox picks.
- 5One song, lights low.
- 6Door open a crack, just how you like it.
- 7Goodnight, Theo. Goodnight, Fox. See you in the morning.
A sample routine. Yours will read like yours — the words you already say, in the order you say them.
How it works
Your bedtime, made into the book.
Tell us how bedtime goes
Your steps, in your order, in your words — the one-more-story rule, the door open a crack, the exact goodnight. The book keeps your rules; it doesn’t bring its own.
Send us the stars
A few phone photos of your kid and whoever does bedtime with them — the animal, the sibling, the grown-up who sings the song. Nothing prints until you say it’s them.
Approve, and we print
You see the whole book on your phone and change any line before it goes anywhere. Then it’s printed as a proper hardcover and posted to you.
The research
Not just a sweet idea — a studied one.
No book can promise your kid’s night, and we won’t. But the nightly bedtime routine is one of the best-studied corners of early childhood, and the findings lean one way.
Ten thousand bedtimes, counted
Across 14 countries, children with a nightly routine were found to sleep over an hour more, settle faster and wake less — and every extra night a week was linked to better sleep.

The bedtime routine pediatricians recommend has three steps, and the book is the second one. They also urge reading aloud together from infancy — for language, and for the bond.

The story earns its slot
In a cohort of about 4,000 children, a bedtime routine that included books at age three was linked to longer sleep and stronger language two years on.

The one they sleep with
Their animal, painted for the book.
Not a lookalike from a catalog — the actual one, with the worn ear and the particular face. That’s who walks them through the pages to goodnight.
When it arrives
Start the routine this week. The book arrives to keep it.
You’ll read and approve every page on your phone before anything prints. The printed book takes about two weeks to make and post — about as long as a new routine takes to feel like the way things are. By the time it lands, the story it tells is already yours.
