🌙 For the 7:45pm “tell me a NEW one”
A brand-new bedtime story, every single night
Starring your kid, their dog, and whatever else they demand — gently told, sweetly illustrated, and ready before the pillow's even fluffed.
Make tonight's story freeTonight-ish stories, freshly made
"The sleepy moon tucking the stars into bed"
"A little bear's goodnight walk"
"The yawning cloud who collected dreams"
How it works
Take the request
“A story about a penguin who's ME, and we go to the moon, and my sister is there too.” Type it in, exactly like that.
Get tonight's story
In about a minute you have a gentle, illustrated tale starring exactly who they asked for — calm by design.
Read it together
Read it from the tablet or print it. Tomorrow night's request will be different — and that's the fun.
Calm, cosy, sleep-shaped
Bedtime tales lean gentle: soft arcs, warm endings, and illustrations in dreamy storybook styles — not action cliffhangers.
Starring your family
Tonight's heroes can be your kid, the dog, and grandma's garden. Personal beats generic, every single night.
Faster than the negotiation
A brand-new story takes about a minute — less time than the debate about whether it's really bedtime.
A ritual, not a screen habit
The story is the destination: generate it together, then it's reading time. Print it and the screen goes away entirely.
Built safe for kids, run by grown-ups
COPPA-conscious by design
A parent, guardian, or teacher creates and controls every account. Kids sign in with a username and PIN — never an email.
Every creation moderated
AI safety checks screen every prompt and every generated image, story, and comment before a child sees it.
No stranger chat
No direct messaging, ever. Sharing happens only in family or classroom Spaces a grown-up owns and moderates.
Questions parents ask
How do I make a personalized bedtime story?
Type what your child asks for — who's in it, where it happens, what they do — and Kidgeni generates a gentle illustrated story around exactly that in about a minute. Kids can also make their own inside the account you control.
Are generated bedtime stories actually calming?
Kidgeni's bedtime tales are steered toward soft, warm, low-stakes storytelling — cosy adventures that wind down rather than rev up — and every story passes a kid-tuned safety check before you read it.
Can we save our favorite bedtime stories?
Yes. Every story is saved to your family's gallery, so “the penguin moon story” can come back by request on any night, and favorites can be printed or turned into a real illustrated book.
What age are the bedtime stories written for?
The generator is tuned for the read-aloud years — roughly ages 3–8 listening, 5–12 creating — and adapts vocabulary and length to what you ask for.
Do I need a subscription for bedtime stories?
The free Little Explorer plan's 1,000 starting Sparks cover your first stories. If it becomes the nightly ritual, paid plans from $9.99/month refill Sparks every month.
