Bedtime story for kids
In the quiet night, the stars are asleep, the moon is asleep, the birds are asleep, and the flowers are asleep too. Everything is so silent. I wonder if anyone is still awake?
The lights are still on at the rabbit family’s house. It turns out that the little rabbit is not asleep yet. But the rabbit mom has told him that it’s time to sleep, it’s already very late. The little rabbit shook his head and said, “Why do I have to sleep?”
Rabbit mom smiled and said, “It’s dark, so it’s time to sleep. Everyone does that.”
“Do I really have to sleep?” the little rabbit asked with wide eyes.
“Of course,” said rabbit mom.
So, the little rabbit nodded and climbed into bed. But after a long time, he still couldn’t fall asleep. The little rabbit wanted to go find the little fox to play, so he quietly put on his clothes and slipped out the door.
The little rabbit walked in the moonlight towards the little fox’s house. The road was quiet, and the birds were sleeping soundly on the trees. When he got to the little fox’s house, through the window, the little rabbit saw that the little fox was already lying in bed, sleeping sweetly.
“The little fox is already asleep, so I’ll go find the little dog!” the little rabbit said to himself.
The little rabbit walked in the moonlight towards the little dog’s house. The road was quiet, and the insects were sleeping quietly in the grass. The little rabbit finally reached the little dog’s house, but he found that the little dog was also sleeping soundly.
The little rabbit was very disappointed and said to himself, “The little dog is also asleep, I better go find the little squirrel.”
The little rabbit walked in the moonlight towards the little squirrel’s house. The road was quiet, and the fish were sleeping in the pond. “Little rabbit, the little squirrel is already asleep, you should go home and sleep too.” Suddenly a voice came from above the little rabbit’s head. The little rabbit was startled and quickly looked up. It was the owl mom.
“Little rabbit, why aren’t you asleep yet?” the owl mom asked.
“I can’t sleep. I don’t understand why everyone has to sleep. But why aren’t you sleeping?” the little rabbit asked.
“We owls sleep during the day and come out at night. We rest well during the day so we have energy to catch mice at night. But you are active during the day, so of course you need to sleep at night, otherwise you won’t have energy during the day,” the owl mom said.
“Oh, I see. I understand now. I’ll go home and sleep. Thank you, owl mom. Goodbye!” said the little rabbit.
The next night, even before the rabbit mom could remind him, the little rabbit was already lying in bed.
“Little rabbit, you are so good today,” rabbit mom said with a smile.
“Mom, from now on I will go to bed early every day and be a good baby,” said the little rabbit.

Going to bed early and getting up early has a great impact on a child’s growth and development. Adequate sleep can give children good energy. Therefore, constantly using picture books to subconsciously tell children the importance of going to bed early and getting up early, and gradually forming good habits is very important.
Of course, parents should also go to bed early and get up early, leading by example is crucial. Tell the child to be like the little rabbit and other small animals, go to bed early and get up early to be healthy and be a good baby.
