A new story each night, or a chapter at a time?
One of the loveliest choices in a bedtime routine is the shape of the story itself. Both have their magic.
A complete story each night
A fresh, self-contained tale every evening is perfect for younger children, for nights when energy is low, or when you simply love variety. There is a satisfying sense of an ending, every single night, and no "but what happens next?" when it is time for lights out.
A chapter a night
One bigger adventure, told a little at a time, gives older children something to look forward to all day. The gentle cliffhanger can actually help them want to get into bed, and following a longer story builds attention and memory.
You can have both
Many families switch depending on the week, the mood, or the child. With Tales by Tuck you can choose a complete new tale each night or a chapter-a-night adventure, and change your mind whenever you like, see the plan.
Give them a story that’s all their own.
