The Setup
This charming book app adapts Sandra Boynton's board book about 10 animals going to bed and turns it into a delightful interactive romp. In between the laughs, kids will see that this boatload of animals also has a going-to-bed routine.
They take a bath (all together), they hang their towels (and themselves) up to dry, they brush their teeth (with hot water and steam up the screen of your device) and exercise (in their pajamas, of course). And then it's down to bed, and time to turn off the lights.
What Makes It Good?
Read by droll, master-storyteller Billy J Kramer and accompanied by gentle piano music, this rhyming book app is special because the animals' characters are well drawn and the interactions add to the reading experience. Kids will enjoy hanging up the elephant to dry, popping bubbles in the bath and spinning the moon to make the animals exercise. This app makes going to bed fun.
Best For
Families that keep a library of going-to-bed reads on their devices should definitely add this one. It is silly fun full of imaginative interactions. It is a great read for both toddlers and preschoolers.
