Personalised audio stories · ages 2 to 10
Eight o'clock, and your child wants a story. Preferably a new one.
Made for your child · Plays on any device · Servers in the EU · First story free
A story your child is really part of
Not just their name — also their people, the things they love, and whatever matters this week. You choose age, theme, length and narrator. We invent the story fresh, every single time.
Twelve to twenty times
your child's name appears — pronounced correctly every time. Not just once at the start.
Eleven narrators
from the warm bedtime voice to the dry old man from the farm — all free to listen to beforehand.
Ten to forty minutes
to suit age and occasion — with wind-down music at the end if you like, so the story doesn't end in silence.

Tell us what your child is like — we build the story around it
A shy child gets a story in which they find their courage at the end. A wild one gets a story in which waiting pays off. No trait is a problem to be fixed.
Plus a free-text field: “What's going on right now?” — one sentence is enough. The wobbly tooth, the new nursery, next week's holiday.
Who else should be in it?
Not just your child. The people who belong, too — with a name and a trait. Once they're in, they stay in.
Mira · 5 · Grandma Ruth · Fussel the dog
“The badger still remembers how brave Mira was on the last adventure by the lake.”
We remember birthdays, holidays and past adventures — and bring them back, in passing, weeks later.
Listening instead of screens
When you listen, the picture forms in your head. A video shows your child what the forest looks like. An audio story lets them build the forest themselves — with the colours, smells and sounds that exist only in their mind. That isn't a substitute activity, it's a different one: your child isn't the audience, they're the director.
It works in the dark. That's why listening is the only medium that suits falling asleep. A screen keeps you awake — a voice lets you go.
And it works alongside other things. While getting dressed, in the car, while drawing. A screen demands the eyes; a story keeps company with whatever is happening anyway.
And: every story is yours to keep as an MP3 — no forced streaming, no account for your child, no advertising.
And when the story is over
Every story comes with a sheet — three questions, a colouring picture and an idea for telling it on. Free, as a PDF in your email and on the page you reach via your link.
Three questions
“Why didn't Mira cross the bridge at first?” — about this story, not in general.
A colouring picture
A scene from the story, in outline. To print out.
An idea
“Keep telling — what happens the next day?” or “Build the cave.”

What it looks like at bedtime
Half a minute from real bedrooms: families hearing a personalised children's audio story with their own child as the main character for the first time. Not a script — this is footage from families who tried it.
What families say
„Wir haben uns die Geschichte im Auto angehört und es hat unseren Kleinen sofort beruhigt. Eine tolle, ruhige und passgenaue Geschichte. Danke Euch!!! Ich komme wieder.“
„Maxim und auch Emil beide Superhelden sind begeistert.“
„Das war eine sehr schöne Urblaubsgeschichte danke 🙏“
„Toootal süüüß und ich hab jetzt schon Pipi in den Augen. Was für eine tolle Idee :-)“
Frequently asked questions
How often does the name appear?
Twelve to twenty times, depending on length — spread across the whole story, not just at the start.
What's the difference between a single story and a ritual?
A story is a film. A ritual is a series: recurring characters and episodes that build on each other.
How do I get out of a ritual?
You don't need to — it ends by itself. And if you go away, you can pause it.
How long can I download the file for?
The link stays valid. You can still download the story in two years' time.
How does the story get onto the audio box?
Download the MP3 and transfer it following the illustrated guide — under two minutes. There's a separate guide for every type of device.
For which ages?
From 2 to 10. Language, length and suspense are tuned precisely to the age group.
How are the stories made?
They're created with the support of generative technology and are editorially reviewed and approved before anyone hears them.
This is how our stories sound
We tell these stories every evening on our channel — illustrated, to read along and to listen to. Free, no sign-up. Your own story is made the same way, only with your child's name.
