I'm starting to think that I have an equally valid opportunity to spread real stories designed to meet the needs of parents and children at bedtime. From my side of this equation – I think that bedtime is just a great time for parents to connect with their children in helping themselves and their children learn and grow together. I like the idea of running a fun and playful social experiment and so I've got free kids books for all at pdoink.com. You can see the audio version of these on YouTube if you like.

My husband and I used to joke about forgetting to order an off switch on our son and needing a rubber mallet to get him to sleep. SO glad those days are over!
