HELP!! Free or cheap bedtime stories audio/cd/podcast??

7 replies

millionaireshortie · 04/07/2019 13:29

I have a 2 young children (4/6) who want to go to sleep later and later. I really value and need my evenings so have set the rule that they do need to be in their rooms at 7.30. I read 3 stories at bedtime. 6 yr old will read to herself as well.

Can any of you recommend any podcasts/audio/CD for bedtime stories for them to listen to in their rooms after I've done my bit? Preferably free or cheap as I know they'll continually want new/fresh stories.

Any help so appreciated!!!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Are you a member of the library? If so look at down loading their app. Some libraries use 'borrow box' and some 'over drive' or 'libby'. You'll need your library card and PIN and then you can listen to a range of audio books. You may have to put a hold on the more popular audio books, such as Harry Potter.

You can also go into the library and borrow audio CDs. They are free for children at my local library.

Borrow box via the library is great. Loads of things for kids on Spotify too. Is there still a BBC kids radio station?
