Every Monday night, your child becomes the hero of their own story.
Dream Story Co. delivers a brand-new, personalised bedtime story to your inbox every week — crafted around your child's name, favourite animals, and the things they love most.
Bedtime should be magical. Most nights it isn't.
You've read the same picture book forty-three times. You've googled "bedtime stories for 6 year olds" at 7:58 PM while a small person bounces on the bed.
Generic stories don't hold their attention. Apps overstimulate instead of calm. And the old favourites stopped being exciting around repetition number twelve.
What children actually want — what settles them, captivates them, and sends them to sleep smiling — is a story where they are the hero.
Set up once. A new adventure every week.

Read a real story
Here's what arrives in your inbox
A Dream Story Co. story written for Lily, age 7 — who loves space, drawing, and her cat named Biscuit.
The night Lily discovered she could draw stars that actually shone, her cat Biscuit was the first to notice.
"You've done something rather extraordinary," Biscuit said, blinking his golden eyes at the sketch pad. Lily looked up, not at all surprised that her cat was talking — some nights are simply like that.
On the page, three stars glimmered with real light — not the waxy yellow of a pencil mark, but genuine starlight, soft and silver, pulsing like a heartbeat.
"They need to go up," Biscuit said. "The sky has been missing three stars since Tuesday."
Lily looked out her window. He was right — three dark spaces in the constellation above the garden, where lights should be. She tucked Biscuit under her arm, stepped into the cool night air, and began to draw her way across the sky…
…continues for another 400 words, ending with Lily drifting to sleep, sketchbook full of new stars.
Simple pricing. All the magic included.

Questions parents ask Dream Story Co.
Do birthday and holiday stories cost extra?
1
No — included in every plan, forever. When your child's birthday arrives, a special story appears automatically. Christmas, Easter, Halloween, New Year, Chinese New Year, NAIDOC Week — every occasion gets its own story. You never need to request them.
How personalised is it, really?
2
Very. Your child's name appears multiple times. Their favourite animal features in the story. Their interests shape the plot. Their age determines the vocabulary. No two Dream Story Co. children ever receive the same story.
What ages is Dream Story Co. for?
3
Children aged 3–12. Ages 3–5 receive shorter simpler stories perfect for reading aloud. Ages 6–8 get richer adventures. Ages 9–12 receive longer stories they can read independently.
What if the story isn't right?
4
