## What is BabyStories?

READ TOGETHER
Let your little one explore the picture while you bring it to life. Each page pairs a read-aloud script with a tiny invitation to play. On iPhone Duo, open the book into an illustration and a grown-up reading guide. Both follow the same page. Try it with five free stories, or read together across all 50 with Premium.

Make tonight a Dream Journey.

BabyStories brings families together for an illustrated bedtime ritual: a moment to arrive, a story to share, and a gentle goodnight.

DREAM JOURNEYS
Choose how the evening feels: Sleepy, Busy mind, Need a hug, or Curious. BabyStories matches a story from your available library. Take a quiet breathing moment, follow seven illustrated pages with optional narration, and end with original soundscapes that fade softly to silence.

Explore Lantern Forest free. Premium adds Moonlit Ocean, Cloud Kingdom, Star Meadow, and Snowlight Valley, each with a different soundscape. Adjust the ambience, turn narration on or off, use dark listening mode, and set a 10-, 15-, 20-, or 30-minute sleep timer. Pause and resume audio from the Lock Screen. Journeys and recommendations work offline, on your device.

50 ILLUSTRATED STORIES
Discover Bedtime, Friendship, Kindness, Adventure, and Wonder. Each story includes seven picture-book pages, gentle narration, a thoughtful moral, and a three-question quiz. The entire catalog and artwork are bundled for offline reading.
