Explore every episode of the podcast Tilibou: Bedtime Stories for Kids · Calm Sleep Stories for Toddlers

An adventure story for children, and the very first episode of Tom the Pirate. On the bluest sea in the world lies the archipelago of the Thousand Coves, the kind of place you will not find on any grown-up's map. That is where the smallest pirate ship ever built sails: the Royal Sardine, so light that no wave can ever sink her. She simply dances on top of the waves. Her captain is Tom, the kindest pirate there is.

Tom never steals a thing. He hunts for lost treasures so he can give them back, and he keeps one small keepsake from each of them at the bottom of his chest. This morning he counts four. Right at the back waits his very first treasure map, drawn by a little girl, with a smiling sun and a big red cross. On board the Royal Sardine, maps are sung rather than read, and this one sings that a cuddly rabbit called Lapinou has fallen off Daddy's boat.

Tom weighs anchor with Moustache, the shy octopus who hides in the teapot and squirts ink whenever he gets scared. But on the way, a big greedy pelican swallows the map in one gulp. No map, no route, no idea where to go. Instead of getting cross, Tom tries to understand this bird who gobbles up everything, and discovers that he mostly does it because he is all alone on his rock.

So Tom invites him to join the crew. From high in the sky, the pelican can see the whole sea at once, and he is the one who spots Lapinou bobbing between the waves, near a rock shaped like a hat. The cuddly toy goes back to the little girl, who hands over a small blue ribbon for the chest: the fifth keepsake.

A gentle story, full of small mishaps, that slips your child one very simple idea. The finest treasure is never gold, it is the smile on the face of the person you give it back to. And the one who causes trouble often just needs a friend.

A screen-free adventure and bedtime story for children aged 3 to 5, good to share at bedtime, in the car, or before a nap. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, with no music, so your child can drift towards sleep. This is the episode that opens the season and sets up the whole world of Tom the Pirate. 🌙

That morning, at Lila's school, a big table is covered with fresh white paper. On it, brushes and pots of colour: red like a strawberry, yellow like the sun, blue like the big gate. Miss Lou claps her hands: «Today is painting day!» All the children cheer «yay!»… all of them, except one. Lila takes a little step back.

Because this morning, Lila is wearing a pretty clean dress, with little flowers, that Mum washed and that smells lovely. And paint makes stains! «Miss, I don't want to, I'll get dirty.» Lila looks at the pots of colour as though they were a little dangerous, torn between wanting to paint and fearing to spoil her lovely dress.

So Miss Lou offers her a big soft smock, just for her, that protects the dress from shoulders to knees. And little by little, brush in hand, Lila dares. A touch of red, a touch of yellow, a big scribble shaped like a sun… and she discovers the pure joy of creating, no longer thinking about stains at all.

This story helps your child let go a little, to accept getting their hands messy for the joy of playing and creating. It also reassures tidy little ones who don't like mess, by showing that with a smock and a bit of confidence, you can have fun without worry. A lovely message about spontaneity and the joy of doing.

And when Lila proudly holds up her big, colourful, still slightly sticky drawing, she's delighted, and her pretty dress, well protected, has stayed perfectly clean. The day ends in pride, and the story settles gently down, right in time to close your eyes thinking of all those lovely colours.

Miss Lou doesn't make fun of Lila and doesn't force her to paint: she understands her worry and gives her just what she needs, a smock, to dare at her own pace. Helping a little one get past a fear gently, rather than pushing them, is the whole spirit of Tilibou bedtime stories. And in the reading corner, Doudou-Hibou watches the lovely artwork with a tender eye.

A gentle, screen-free school story for toddlers from age 2, perfect for easing back-to-school nerves, lovely to share at bedtime, in the car, or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift toward sleep without anyone being startled awake. 🎒

A warm, funny bedtime story for kids under a sky full of stars. Tonight in Cactus-Ville, it is the very first camping night out beneath the great big Wild West stars. Cassie and Tornado roll out their sleeping bags on the soft dusty ground, point their noses straight up at the sparkling sky, and settle in cosily for the grand evening ahead.

Between the mysterious bumps and creaks of the desert night, the long shadows that seem to shift and dance just beyond the campfire, and the sudden bursts of giggles they share to feel a little braver, our two friends have an evening to truly remember. And slowly, as the campfire crackles low and the whole night grows hushed, the wide starry sky begins to rock them gently toward sleep. Each creak and rustle turns into another shared giggle, and the campfire keeps the whole night feeling cosy and safe. The desert at night is full of surprises, but together, side by side, the two friends feel ready for anything. The fire crackles, the coyotes call far away, and the two friends huddle a little closer beneath the enormous sky.

There is a small touch of being just-a-bit-scared, the way the dark always is at first, but here every little shiver turns into a laugh, and every strange noise turns out to be nothing at all but the wind or a far-off, hooting owl.

This is a story that is cosy and joyful both at once, perfect for gazing up at the stars in your imagination and slipping softly off toward sleep. It is a warm and reassuring little tale about how the dark grows friendly when you are not alone.

It quietly shows a little one that the dark can be a friendly place when you are snug and not alone, the loveliest sort of thought to fall asleep on.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or at nap time. And even after all the fun, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone settle before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for children, brimming with humour. The witch Sorcellina has made a complete mess of her latest potion. Instead of turning her wicked and nasty in good time for the great witches' inspection, it has gone and made her adorable, polite, and utterly overflowing with kindness from head to toe!

For a witch, this is an absolute catastrophe, but for the rest of Tournebois it is a wonderful stroke of luck. Through one spell mishap and one funny twist after another, Leo and Pistache watch this newly sweet sorceress fumble her way through the day, holding doors open and handing out compliments left and right, and they slowly discover a happy truth: kindness might just be the very greatest power of all. The harder she tries to be wicked, the kinder she somehow becomes, much to her own utter confusion.

Little by little, Sorcellina herself begins to wonder whether being kind is really so terrible after all. The whole kingdom warms to her, neighbours wave a friendly hello, and she finds, much to her own great surprise, that helping other people actually feels rather lovely. The kinder she becomes, the happier the whole kingdom grows, and even Sorcellina cannot quite help but smile. Before long, the once-grumpy witch is helping out all over the kingdom, and finding that she rather likes it.

This is a warm, funny adventure that celebrates being kind, the kind of tale to listen to with a giggle just before bed. It leaves a child feeling, deep down inside, that gentleness is a real and mighty strength. It is a playful little adventure with a warm and generous heart at its centre.

Playful and reassuring all at once, it is the sort of story that ends the day on a happy, good-natured note, with a smile and a soft, open heart.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, fun to share at bedtime or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can wind down before sleep. 🐉

A gentle bedtime story for children about bad dreams and being comforted. In the deep middle of the night, far inside the tree-house, a small sound wakes Noisette. It is Pinpin, her little brother, who has just had a funny, jumbled-up dream and cannot quite settle himself back down. His eyes are wide and his bottom lip is wobbling in the dark.

Very softly, so as not to wake the whole sleeping house, Noisette comforts him. She explains, in simple words a small bear can understand, that dreams, even the strangest, silliest, most muddled ones, can never really reach out and hurt you. They are only pictures in your head, made up while you sleep, and like clouds drifting across the sky they pass on by if you simply let them. She reminds him too that morning is not far away, and that he is safe and warm and surrounded by family.

Together they breathe slowly in the dark, in and out, in and out, and one by one the scary bits of the dream lose their power and fade away. Noisette stays close beside him until his eyes grow heavy again. Soon Pinpin is snuggled right back down, warm and safe, ready to sail off into much nicer dreams. Wrapped up warm again, with the dream gone quiet, Pinpin lets his little eyes fall shut once more.

This is a tender sleep story about nightmares and reassurance, just right for children whom the night sometimes makes a little uneasy. It hands a little one a calm, simple way to soothe themselves and settle back to sleep. It is a story about being comforted, and about learning, little by little, to comfort yourself in the dark.

It also shows the gentle comfort of an older sibling's care, the kind of quiet kindness that makes the dark feel smaller and friendlier. A soothing story to keep close for the nights when a child wakes up needing a bit of reassurance.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, soothing at bedtime or in the small hours when a child wakes up. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids, and the perfect sleepy question. Aaah, haaa, but why on earth do we yawn at all, exactly? And why is it that the very moment one single person yawns, everybody else nearby suddenly feels the irresistible urge to yawn right along with them? Marin and Plume set off, wide-eyed and curious, in search of the answer.

All along the way, and after a good many very catching yawns of their very own, our two explorers slowly learn a soothing little truth. A yawn is a soft and gentle signal. It is the body's quiet, kindly way of letting you know that the time has finally come to slow down, to settle, and to rest. There is nothing at all to fight against, it is simply a sleepy little hello. The more they talk about yawning, the more they yawn, and so, very likely, will everyone listening along. They cannot help but join in, yawning wider and wider, until the whole investigation turns deliciously sleepy. The sleepier they grow, the more certain they become that this is one mystery best solved tucked up in bed.

By the time they finally do have their answer, Marin and Plume are both feeling pleasantly drowsy, their eyelids growing heavier and heavier, and the whole story has gently lowered itself toward sleep, the very way a long, slow yawn always seems to do.

This is a cosy, curious discovery story that is absolutely just right for the slow, quiet moment just before nap time or bed. Be warned, plenty of yawns are very nearly guaranteed. It is a cosy little story made on purpose for the sleepiest, slowest moment of the whole day.

Drowsy and warm by careful design, it is the kind of story that does half the work of bedtime for you, easing a little one softly off toward sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, perfect at bedtime or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐳

A funny, true-to-life bedtime story for kids about saying sorry. Cassie the cowgirl has gone and made a real mess of things, and everybody in Cactus-Ville knows it perfectly well. But getting her to actually say sorry out loud? No way, never, not in a million years! She would sooner saddle up and gallop clear to the far edge of the desert than let those two little syllables past her lips.

Over the course of one long, stubborn, dusty day, Cassie slowly comes around to a realisation. Saying sorry is not losing at all, and it most certainly is not weak. It is simply the way that you put things right and mend what has been broken between two people. And the real, true courage, it turns out in the end, is sometimes just owning up that you got it wrong. The longer she holds out, the heavier her stubbornness sits, until she can hardly stand it any longer. She huffs and she stomps and she finds a hundred reasons to put it off, but the feeling will not leave her be. All day long her friends wait patiently, hoping she will find the courage to put things right between them.

When she finally finds the bravery to say it, properly and out loud and from the heart, the tight knot of stubbornness inside her loosens all at once, and making up feels far, far better than digging her heels in ever did.

This is a funny, honest story about pride, apologies, and making up again, so a child can go to bed feeling lighter and at ease, with no grumpiness or hurt feelings left behind. It is an honest, funny little story that makes saying sorry feel brave rather than embarrassing.

It gently shows that everyone gets it wrong sometimes, and that one brave little sorry can set a whole heart at peace before sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or in the car. And even after a good laugh, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone wind down before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for kids, poetic and dreamy. One morning, the whole kingdom of Tournebois wakes up completely grey. During the night, every single colour has quietly slipped away and disappeared. No more red, no more blue, no more green anywhere to be seen, and the world has turned dull, flat, and just a little bit sad.

So Leo and Pistache set off together on a quest to track down the lost colours and bring them safely home again, one by one by one. From the bluest blue of the wide open sky to the reddest red of a single rose in the garden, each colour they manage to recover lights up the world a little more. And along the way, they rediscover just how beautiful everything truly is when it shines with all of its many shades. They search high and low, from the tops of the hills to the petals of the smallest flowers, gathering colour as they go.

By the time the very last colour is finally back in its proper place, our two heroes find themselves looking at the whole kingdom with fresh new eyes, noticing small wonders they had always walked straight past before. The world was lovely all along, they had simply forgotten to stop and really look at it. Each shade they return brings the kingdom that little bit more to life, until everything glows once more.

This is a gentle adventure about wonder and the everyday beauty of the world all around us, the kind to savour slowly and quietly just before closing your eyes. A soft little nudge to notice the lovely things. It is a soft and dreamy adventure about really seeing the everyday wonders we so often miss.

It leaves a child with a calm and happy thought to carry along into sleep: that beauty is everywhere, just waiting to be seen, in the simple colours of an ordinary day.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can drift off calmly. 🐉

A reassuring bedtime story for children about a first night away from home. Tonight is a big first for Noisette: she is sleeping far from the tree-house, all the way over at Granny Badger's cosy little burrow. A new bed, a new smell, new sounds in the dark, and Mama and Papa just a little bit missed. At first, everything feels strange and unfamiliar, and her heart gives a small, homesick squeeze.

But as the evening gently unfolds, between a warm cup of herbal tea and a story told softly beside the crackling stove, Noisette slowly discovers something comforting. You can feel good somewhere new. You can feel safe and snug and well looked after, even when the people you love most are far away for the night. Granny Badger tucks the blanket in just so, and the little burrow starts to feel a great deal kinder.

By the time she curls up under that warm blanket, the strange new room has started to feel almost familiar. The shadows on the wall are friendly now, the night sounds have softened, and the little ache of missing home has melted into a sleepy, contented warmth. A familiar bedtime ritual, even in an unfamiliar place, turns out to be just the thing she needed.

This is a comforting sleep story for first sleepovers and new beginnings, for nights at the grandparents' house, a friend's home, or settling into nursery. It helps a child meet that big feeling of being far from home with gentleness and trust. It quietly prepares a child for any night spent under a new and different roof.

Most of all, it whispers a reassuring truth to a little one: home is still there, the people you love are still thinking of you, and a new bed can become a cosy one too. A soft story to ease any night spent somewhere unfamiliar.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, lovely to share at bedtime or nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your little one can close their eyes feeling safe. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about seeing the world in a brand new way. When the rain comes pattering softly down across the wide-open sea, what on earth becomes of all the fish swimming far, far below? Snug and warm and dry inside the Boat-Cabin, Marin and Plume listen to the drops drumming overhead and slowly start to wonder.

Off they go, down into the cool blue depths, for a curious and refreshing little plunge beneath the waves. And there they make a truly lovely discovery: rain, when you watch it from underneath the water, looks just exactly like a beautiful, shimmering music of pearls falling and dancing all around you. It is more than enough to make you look at a grey, drizzly day in a completely different light. The deeper they dive, the more beautiful the falling rain becomes, until the grey day feels almost magical. They drift among the calm and curious fish, watching the surface ripple and sparkle high above them. All around them, the fish carry on calmly, quite at home in their cool blue world while the rain drums above.

Marin learns that even the gloomiest, greyest weather hides something quietly wonderful when you simply change where you happen to be standing, and that there is beauty to be found almost everywhere, if only you are curious enough to go and look for it.

This is a discovery story for watching the world from a fresh new angle, just perfect for rainy days and quiet, cosy evenings tucked up at home. It is a curious little story that gently teaches a child to find the beauty in even a rainy day.

It leaves a child with a gentle, hopeful idea to keep close: that even rainy days are full of small wonders, if you only know how to look at them.

A funny bedtime story for kids that is just the right amount of sleepy. It is a big day in Cactus-Ville: the whole town is heading off on a grand outing to the Rolling Pebbles Desert. Everything is ready and packed and waiting, except for one small detail. A detail that happens to be snoring. Tornado the pony is fast asleep, in a slumber so deep, so vast, and so utterly historic that it is almost magnificent.

There is simply no waking him, no way, no how, not for love nor carrots. So Cassie dreams up a thousand schemes, each one sillier and more wonderfully ridiculous than the last, to rouse this champion sleeper from his happy dream. Tickling his floppy ears, trumpeting a great brass horn, tempting him with all of his very favourite treats, she tries the whole entire lot. It is the sort of mission that, if we are honest, rather makes you want to yawn along too. Snores rumble out of him like distant thunder, and the whole town gathers round to watch this legendary nap.

And that, of course, is exactly the charm of the whole thing. As the schemes grow drowsier and the wide desert grows quieter and quieter, the story itself gently slows right down and tiptoes, on soft little hooves, toward sleep. The more she tries, the sleepier the whole town seems to feel, until even the desert appears to be dozing.

This is a story that makes you laugh and makes you yawn, in just the right, sleepy measure. The ideal companion for bedtime or nap time, for when little eyes are already starting to feel heavy. It is a cleverly drowsy little story, designed to slow right down just as your child does.

Funny at the start and soothing by the end, it is the kind of tale that carries a child gently all the way from giggles into rest.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, perfect at bedtime or at nap time. And even after all the giggles, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone settle before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for children about never giving up. A dragon who cannot fly, does such a thing really exist? Well, yes, it does. Pistache is perfectly happy gliding along just a hand's width above the ground, but the very moment it comes to climbing any higher into the open sky, fear pins him right where he stands and his wings simply will not cooperate.

With a great deal of patience, and his loyal friend Leo cheering him on from down below, Pistache begins to practise. He wobbles, he tumbles, he picks himself right back up, dusts off his green scales, and tries all over again. And again. And then again after that. Because you very rarely get something right on the very first go, and that is perfectly, completely all right. Leo never once laughs at his friend's tumbles, only cheers a little louder with each brave new try. Each gentle fall teaches him a little more, and each fresh attempt carries him a tiny bit higher than before.

Then, at last, after all those falls and all that trying, Pistache finds the courage to truly take the leap, and for one glorious, soaring moment he is actually flying high above the trees. The lesson lands as softly as he does: keep going, and you get there in the end.

This is a lovely, encouraging adventure about perseverance and gently pushing past your own limits, the kind that whispers to a child that effort and patience really do pay off in time. It is a tender, hopeful tale about trying, falling, and trying once again until you succeed.

It is a warm reminder that falling down is just part of learning anything new, and that every little wobble brings you one step closer to the moment it finally works. A heartening story to settle a busy day.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a long drive. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can wind down peacefully. 🐉

A heartfelt bedtime story for kids about saying sorry. This afternoon, Noisette hurt the feelings of Tim the hedgehog, and ever since, she has had a big, heavy stone sitting right in the middle of her tummy. It will not go away on its own, no matter how hard she wishes, and she has no idea at all how to mend a little mistake like that.

Wise old Granny Badger takes her gently in hand and shows her how it is done. Sorry is said with your mouth, up close and truly meant, looking your friend right in the eye. But sorry is also said with your paws, by helping out and putting right whatever went wrong. It takes a little courage, and a small quiet voice at first, but it is always, always worth it in the end. A real apology, Granny Badger says, is one you mean with your whole heart, not just two quick words tossed over your shoulder.

And once Noisette has truly done it, both with her words and with her actions, something wonderful happens: the heavy stone in her tummy lifts all by itself and floats clean away. She and Tim share a smile, they are friends again, and her whole heart feels light and free. The relief on her face says it all: making things right feels so much better than carrying that heavy stone around. She and Tim go right back to playing, the little quarrel forgotten and the friendship as warm as ever.

This is a gentle story about forgiveness and making up again, so a child can end the day feeling lighter and at peace, with no grumpiness or guilt left over to carry into the dark. It gently teaches that mending a friendship is always worth a little courage.

It quietly shows that everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and that a true sorry, both said and shown, is one of the kindest and bravest things there is. A soft, reassuring little lesson to settle before sleep.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, comforting at bedtime or nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your little one can drift off gently. 🌙

A slow, soothing bedtime story for children. Drifting along with the water in the Cosy Forest, the little brook hums a quiet lullaby that only the calmest, sleepiest hearts can hear. Tonight, Noisette sits very still on the soft mossy bank, lets her shoulders drop, and leans in close to listen to its gentle, watery song.

The story moves along at the unhurried pace of the flowing water, the soft chirp of the crickets, and the wind brushing slowly through the leaves. The more your child listens, the more everything begins to slow down: the breathing, the body, the busy thoughts of the day, until eyelids grow pleasantly heavy and warm and hard to keep open. Even the crickets seem to settle, and the brook keeps up its slow and steady murmur, never hurrying, never stopping.

There is no big adventure here and no rush to get anywhere at all, and that is exactly the point of it. This is a story built to be a soft bridge into sleep, with long, gentle sentences and a calm, rocking rhythm that quietly lowers the lights inside a little head, one slow word at a time. Sentence by sentence, the world grows softer and slower, until even staying awake feels like too much effort.

Like a single leaf set down on the surface of the brook, the day's small worries are allowed to float away downstream, out of sight and out of mind, until there is nothing left to hold on to but the quiet and the warmth of the bed. There is nothing here to startle or excite, only the soft and patient pull of sleep itself.

It is the one to choose when it really is time to close your eyes, on the evenings when your child needs a little extra help slowing right down, letting go of the day, and settling into the soft hush of the night.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, perfect for bedtime or nap time when the day is winding down. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so nothing pulls your child back awake. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about the quiet magic of nature. Inside the warm, busy hive, the bees suddenly all start to dance, twirling and wiggling round and round and round again. Why on earth all these funny little steps and turns and shimmies? Marin and Plume are quite determined to get to the very bottom of this small and curious little mystery.

Following the dance up close, our two explorers make a truly delightful discovery. The bees are actually talking to one another as they dance, using their wiggles and their turns to show all the others exactly which way to fly to find the loveliest, most flower-filled spots of all. Everyone, it turns out, has their very own special way of saying "it is this way, come and follow me." The closer they watch the dancing, the more they realise just how much the busy little bees have to say. They trace each loop and wiggle of the dance, slowly piecing together what the bees are trying to say. Round and round the busy dancers go, and slowly the whole clever message starts to make perfect sense.

Marin is utterly amazed to learn that even the very tiniest of creatures have a whole language all their own, and that nature is full to the brim with quiet, clever little conversations happening all around us, if only we stop and take the time to notice them.

This is a wonder-filled discovery story about the gentle, hidden magic of the natural world, the kind that opens the eyes of curious little ones wide. Perfect for the calm moment of the day. It is a wonder-filled little story about the secret conversations happening quietly all around us.

It leaves a child with a soft sense of wonder at the secret world all around them, a lovely thought to turn over quietly on the way to sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🐳

A tender, funny bedtime story for kids about trusting the littlest ones. For the very first time in eleven whole years, Sheriff Lopez has to leave Cactus-Ville for an entire day. But a town can never be left without a sheriff, not even for an afternoon, so somebody simply has to stand in. And to absolutely everyone's great surprise, it is tiny little Pico who gets to pin on the big shiny star.

Pico takes his brand-new role very, very seriously indeed, perhaps even just a tiny bit too seriously, marching all about the place and handing out rules and orders left, right, and centre. But deep down, trusting the smallest among us is really just giving them the chance to show how truly wonderful they can be, and Pico is absolutely determined not to let a single soul in town down. Little Pico puffs out his chest, tips his hat just so, and sets about his big day with all his might.

By the end of his big day, Pico has grown a good deal taller on the inside, and the whole town has learned something lovely: even the littlest sheriff can rise right up to the occasion, and do a fine job of it too, when people choose to believe in him. The whole town quietly roots for him, watching their littlest deputy grow into the role hour by hour.

This is a warm and funny story about the big trust we place in little ones, and the lovely things they go on to do with it. Just the thing to feel grown-up and proud right before going to sleep. It is a warm and funny little tale about how trust can help even the smallest among us shine.

It leaves a child quietly glowing with the feeling that they, too, can be counted on, a small but solid bit of confidence to carry off into the night.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely to share at bedtime or in the car. And even after a good laugh, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone wind down before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for kids about believing in yourself. It is a big day in Tournebois: the Little Ones' Tournament has finally arrived, the one and only contest in the whole kingdom set aside for the very smallest knights of all. Leo has been up since dawn, polishing his trusty wooden sword until it gleams in the morning light.

Contest after contest, our two heroes make a surprising discovery. The biggest muscles and the tallest height are not what win the day at all. Time and time again it is a clever idea, a kind gesture, a bit of quick thinking, and a small dose of confidence that carry them through, proving worth far more than brute strength ever could. Leo and Pistache cheer each other on at every turn. From the very first event, it is clear this will be no ordinary tournament, and no ordinary little hero will win it. Each clever little win surprises them more than the last, and the watching crowd cheers louder every time.

By the end, the two friends come away understanding that being small is not a weakness to be ashamed of, but a real strength all of its own. There is more than one way in the world to be a hero, and theirs, it turns out, fits them both perfectly. Each little victory teaches them that there are many different ways to be strong, and that theirs counts just as much.

This is an encouraging, joyful adventure for every child who sometimes feels too small or too little next to the big ones. It is a gentle reminder that being little has its own kind of power, and that cleverness and kindness count for a very great deal. It is a heartening little adventure for anyone who has ever felt overlooked for being small.

It is the sort of warm, upbeat story that leaves a little one feeling proud of exactly who they are, big heart and all, just in time for sleep.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, nice at bedtime or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can finish the day feeling calm. 🐉

A bedtime story for children, and a tender little mystery to solve together. Disaster has struck the tree-house: the goodnight kiss has gone missing! Who in the world could have made off with the most important kiss of all, the soft little one you share right before you fall asleep? Noisette is determined to get to the bottom of it before lights-out.

She pulls on her detective hat and follows the trail of clues through the whole Cosy Forest, from giggles to silly suspicions, questioning everyone she meets along the way. Was it Papa Bear, hiding behind his big newspaper? Mama Bear, busy and humming in the kitchen? Cheeky little Pinpin, with that mischievous grin on his face? The hunt grows funnier and cosier with every single step. Everyone she asks is in on the giggles, and the more she searches, the cosier and sillier the whole evening becomes.

Each suspect has an alibi sillier than the last, and the whole search turns into a warm, laughing romp around the tree-house. And of course, the story ends with the very softest cuddle of all, because the goodnight kiss was never really lost at all. It was waiting the whole time, right there in the arms of the people who love her most. By the time the kiss is found, the whole house is smiling, and Noisette is more than ready for her cuddle.

It is a sweet, giggly sleep story and the perfect ritual to share just before the lights go out and a little one snuggles down for the night. Quiet enough for the end of the day, and warm enough to send everyone off with a smile. It turns the close of the day into something warm and shared, rather than rushed.

Best of all, it nudges your own evening toward its loveliest moment, the real goodnight kiss, the one that says you are safe, you are loved, and it is time now to close your eyes.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, lovely at bedtime or nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your child can drift gently toward sleep. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about looking past appearances. The sloth spends its long, slow days hanging upside down from its leafy branch, doing almost absolutely nothing at all. But is it really as lazy as everyone always seems to think? Marin and Plume set off on a careful investigation to sort out, once and for all, the true from the false.

Watching the sloth more and more closely, hour after gentle hour, our two explorers come to a surprising understanding. Going very, very slowly is not at all the same thing as being lazy. In fact, taking your time can sometimes be the cleverest, wisest move in the whole wide world. And the real lesson hidden here is this: you should never, ever judge anyone too quickly. They settle in to watch, slow and quiet themselves, determined not to jump to any hasty conclusions. Hour by quiet hour, they begin to suspect there is far more to this slow little creature than meets the eye.

Marin learns that there is a good and sensible reason behind the sloth's wonderfully gentle pace, and that slowing right down, far from being a fault, can sometimes be exactly the right thing to do. Slowing right down, it turns out, is the sloth's own clever and gentle way of getting through its day.

This is a thoughtful discovery story that invites a child to look beyond first impressions and, every now and then, to take the time to truly slow right down. Calming and reassuring for the evening. It is a thoughtful little story that gently invites a child to look closer before deciding too fast.

It is the kind of soft, unhurried story that gives a little one permission to slow down too, setting just the right pace for easing off toward sleep.

A funny bedtime story for kids, full of silly sounds. Down at the famous Echo-Echo-Echo Canyon, it is the day of the great Shouting Contest, where whoever can make their echo last the very longest is crowned the champion. Cassie, all of her friends, and the whole of Cactus-Ville holler, whoop, and warble their lungs right out in one big, joyful, ear-tickling racket.

But this is a mischievous old canyon with a sense of humour all of its very own. It has a sneaky knack for quietly tucking shouts away in reserve and then flinging them right back out at the most unexpected, most ridiculous moment imaginable. A cheerful "yoo-hoo" from this morning might come bouncing right back in the middle of somebody else's turn. Get ready for one funny surprise in sound after another. The louder they shout, the funnier the canyon's answers become, and nobody can keep a straight face for long.

Between the booming echoes and the giggles they set off all around, the whole contest soon dissolves into happy chaos, and nobody much minds in the end who actually wins. The canyon, it seems, has had the very last laugh of all. The whole town ends up in fits of laughter as the canyon flings their voices back at the silliest possible moments.

This is a story packed with funny noises and echoes bouncing everywhere, made for a really good giggle and absolutely begging to be repeated out loud together. A lovely burst of good cheer to share before the night. It is a wonderfully noisy little story, made to be giggled at and shouted back out loud together.

Playful and light from beginning to end, it is the kind of story that gets the laughter out and then lets a little one settle, all giggled out and ready for sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or in the car. And even after all that hollering, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone settle before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for children, silly and tender all at once. Hic! In the kingdom of Tournebois, a poor little cloud has caught the hiccups, and with every single "hic" it lets loose a sudden surprise downpour. Into the brass band's tuba, splash. Onto the basket of warm, fresh croissants, splash. And then right inside a sleepy guard's boot, splash again.

Leo and Pistache set off on a hunt for the silliest, most far-fetched cure imaginable to soothe this drippy little case of the hiccups. Drink water upside down, give the cloud a friendly little fright, hold your breath and count slowly to ten, they try absolutely everything they can possibly think of, to the great delight of the whole watching crowd and plenty of helpless, rolling laughter. The whole kingdom joins in, offering its own daft suggestions, until the chase after a cure becomes the funniest part of all. No matter how soggy things get, the two friends keep their good humour and never once give up on the poor little cloud.

Through all the soggy mishaps and the puddles, the kingdom never once loses its good humour, and the little cloud is treated with patience and gentleness rather than any crossness. In the end, it is a warm hug and a shared giggle that work far better than any clever remedy at all.

This is a funny, gentle adventure, full of gags and kindness from the very first "hic" to the very last. Perfect for ending the day with a smile and a calmer, lighter heart. It is a story where being gentle and a little bit silly turns out to be exactly the right answer.

Beneath all the laughs, it quietly shows that the kindest way to help someone who is struggling is with patience, not impatience. A cheerful, soft story to ease into the night.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a car trip. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐉

A bedtime story for kids about that big, hot feeling we call anger. Grrr! Tonight Noisette is cross, really, truly cross. It is the kind of anger that rises up fast, makes your cheeks burn, balls up your paws, and makes you want to knock absolutely everything over and stamp your feet on the floor. It feels enormous, like a little volcano grumbling away deep inside her chest.

Alongside Noisette, your child learns something important and reassuring: anger is allowed to exist. It is a perfectly normal feeling, and there is nothing wrong or bad about having it. The trick is in what you do with it, and Noisette slowly discovers that you can tell your anger out loud, with words, instead of letting it out through your paws.

One big breath in, one long breath out, and the little volcano bubbling inside her starts to settle back down. The cross feeling does not vanish by magic all at once, but it grows smaller and quieter, like a kettle lifted gently off the heat, until at last Noisette feels like her own warm self again. Saying out loud what made her so cross helps the heat drain away faster than holding it all inside ever could.

This is a kind, calming story about taming a strong emotion, helping a child name what they feel, say it out loud, and find their quiet again before the night. It is a gentle reminder that even the stormiest feelings always pass in the end, and that you are still loved on the days you boil over. It is the gentle, reassuring idea that being angry does not make you a bad cub, and that the feeling always softens in time.

By bedtime, the heat has faded and the room feels peaceful once more. It is the perfect soothing story for an evening that started with a frown, helping a little one let go of the grumpiness and soften toward sleep.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, soothing at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can wind down before sleep. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about the busy little builders of nature. Deep in the heart of the forest, right at the quiet water's edge, Marin and Plume stumble upon something very strange indeed: a tall, towering mountain of twigs and branches piled high right across the stream. Who in the world could possibly have built such an enormous castle out of nothing but wood?

Our two investigators set off to solve the puzzle, following the trail clue by clue along the bank, until at last they come face to face with a tireless little builder hard at work, carrying one stick after another after another. It is wonderful proof that with lots of small, steady efforts, and a few helping hands, you really can build great big and impressive things. The closer they look, the more they admire just how much one small, determined creature can achieve. They picture all the patient work it must have taken, twig by twig, to raise such a remarkable structure.

Marin comes away from it all truly inspired, realising that you do not have to be large or strong at all to make something quite remarkable. You simply have to keep going, patiently and steadily, one little twig at a time, until the work is finally done.

This is a curious, eye-opening story about nature's tiny and tireless master builders, the kind that makes a child want to go and build something wonderful of their very own. Soft and quietly inspiring before the night. It is an inspiring little story about patience, hard work, and the wonders that small steps can build.

It leaves a little one with a calm and hopeful feeling to sleep on: that small steps, done with care and patience, add up to truly wonderful things in the end.

That morning, at Lila's school, the sun is shining. Lila has hung her coat on her own hook, the one with the little sun, she's sung a bit of the morning song, and now comes everyone's favourite time: playtime in the yard. And right in the middle of the yard stands the big red slide, which Lila gazes at with stars in her eyes. «The slide! I want to slide, right now!»

The trouble is, Lila isn't the only one who wants to slide. There's Noé, a little girl with bunches, two boys with their trucks… and everyone arrives at the foot of the ladder at the very same moment! There's pushing, there's grumbling, everyone shouts «me first!». The result: a fine little tangle of children at the foot of the slide, and no one climbs, no one slides.

With Miss Lou's gentle help and a little wink from Doudou-Hibou, the children discover an almost magic formula: one at a time. You make a line, you count the friends ahead of you, you wait just a little, and hop, when your turn comes, you slide for real. And the waiting, in the end, becomes part of the game.

This story helps your child tame something quite hard when you're small: waiting your turn and sharing. It shows, without preaching, that everyone has more fun when each one waits a little, and that «one at a time» is not a punishment, but the secret that makes the game work well for everyone.

And when Lila finally slides down the big red slide, hair in the wind, she laughs with joy, and she can't wait to line up again to do it once more. Playtime ends in happiness, and the story settles gently down, right in time to close your eyes.

Miss Lou doesn't scold the children who push: she helps them find, together, a solution that makes everyone happy. Guiding little ones toward «one at a time» instead of deciding for them is the whole spirit of Tilibou bedtime stories. And in the reading corner, Doudou-Hibou quietly closes his eye again, pleased with the lovely morning.

A gentle, screen-free school story for toddlers from age 2, lovely at bedtime, at nap time, or on the road. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your little one can settle down calmly. 🎒

A funny bedtime story for kids, full of splashes and giggles. At the Rainbow Ranch, an almost impossible mission is waiting for Cassie. She has to give Sheriff a bath, the dirtiest, muddiest, most stubborn little pig in all the West, a pig who has never once had a bath in his entire life and who fully intends to keep things exactly that way, thank you very much.

What follows is a riot of flying splashes, mountains of soapy suds, and frantic galloping all the way around the yard. Sheriff dodges and squeals and skids straight through the mud, Cassie slips and chases and laughs, the bucket goes sailing through the air, and very soon it is anyone's guess at all who will end up the soggiest of the two. Who do you think gets soaked right through in the end? The yard turns into one enormous splashy battlefield, and by the end nobody is quite sure who is washing whom. From the first splash to the last, the chase only gets sillier, soggier, and a great deal funnier.

Beneath all the foam and the fun, Sheriff slowly begins to discover that a warm bath is not the terrible fate he always feared it would be. Being clean, and snuggly, and smelling of soap actually feels rather nice, and he just might even let it happen again next time.

This is a story full of energy and giggles, made to be enjoyed with a great big belly laugh. And it is gentle proof that a little bath, when all is said and done, really is not so terrible after all. It is a bouncy, joyful story with a gentle reminder tucked inside about facing the things we dread.

Bouncy and warm-hearted, it is the perfect story to burn off the very last of the day's wiggles before everything finally goes calm and quiet.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, fun to share at bedtime or on a car trip. And even after such a soggy adventure, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone wind down before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for kids, and a giggly royal mystery. All hands on deck at Tournebois castle: just before the great feast is due to begin, the king's magnificent cake has vanished clean into thin air! Who on earth could have pulled off a theft as bold, and as delicious, as this one? The whole castle is in an uproar.

Leo and Pistache pop on their detective hats and take charge of the investigation, following the trail from one false lead to the next in a romp packed with humour and surprises. A trail of crumbs leading off this way, a suspicious smear of icing over there, a guilty-looking smile across the room, and every single clue seems to point somewhere brand new. The chase grows sillier and more tangled at every turn. Every suspect protests their innocence, and the list of clues only seems to grow longer and more delicious by the minute. Leo and Pistache compare notes, follow their noses, and slowly close in on the cheeky cake thief.

Of course, the mystery is solved in the end with a good laugh rather than a telling-off, and the splendid feast is rescued just in the nick of time. It is a gentle, funny reminder that a clear head and a little bit of teamwork can untangle even the very stickiest of puzzles. By the time the truth comes out, everyone is laughing far too hard to mind about the missing slice at all.

This is a funny adventure that brings the first season of Leo and Pistache to a cheerful, happy close. Just the thing for a good giggle and ending the day in a bright and easy mood. It is light and giggly from the first crumb to the very last, with not a sharp word in sight.

Light, warm, and full of friendly mischief from start to finish, it is the kind of story that sends a child off to sleep with a smile still on their face.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, fun to share at bedtime or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can wind down before sleep. 🐉

A gentle bedtime story for children about the feelings that live inside a small tummy. You know that tight little knot that sometimes turns up on the days of a first time, the morning of something new and slightly scary? This morning, Noisette has it too, curled up right in the middle of her belly before a big day ahead. It makes her feel fluttery and a little unsure, and at first she does not even know what to call it.

All through the story, she learns to put words to what she is feeling. She says a quiet hello to that little knot, gives it a name, notices exactly where it sits and how it feels, and then, ever so slowly, she lets it begin to float away. Because a feeling you can name is far less frightening than one you cannot, and naming it is the very first step to letting it pass. She takes her time over it, and the more she pays attention, the smaller and softer the knot begins to feel.

Noisette discovers that feelings are not enemies to fight against or push down inside. They are more like little visitors that come and then go again. You can welcome the knot, breathe gently alongside it, and trust that it will leave on its own, all by itself, once it has been noticed and heard.

This is a warm, cuddly sleep story about big emotions in little hearts, just right for children whose tummies sometimes feel tied up in knots before a new step, a new place, or a new day. It helps a child feel understood, a little braver, and a good deal lighter before drifting off. Naming a feeling out loud, it turns out, is a quiet kind of bravery all of its own.

By the last page, the knot has loosened and softened, and Noisette feels calm enough to rest. It is the kind of quiet, reassuring story that gives a child gentle words for what they feel, so the day's worries do not follow them under the covers.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, lovely to share at bedtime or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your little one can quietly close their eyes. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about animals and their hidden superpowers. How in the world does the penguin manage to live out on the frozen ice, all day long, without ever once shivering or catching a chill? Marin and Plume are absolutely determined to find out, so they set a course straight for the far-off land of the great cold.

Out there, among the penguins all huddled tightly together in one big, busy, feathery crowd, our two explorers slowly uncover their lovely little secret. All on your own, the cold creeps right in and nips at your toes. But pressed up close and snug against the ones you love, you always, always warm right back up again. The penguins take careful turns shuffling into the middle, keeping each other cosy simply by sticking together. The whole huddle of penguins moves like one big warm blanket, nobody ever left out in the cold for long. They watch the great feathery crowd shuffle and shift, marvelling at how clever and cosy it all is. Even the iciest wind cannot reach the middle of the huddle, where it is always warm and welcoming.

Marin tucks this gentle little discovery away in his heart for keeps: that warmth, the real and lasting kind, so often comes from the people, and the penguins, that you choose to hold the very closest.

This is a story for understanding animals and their clever little superpowers, finished off with a tender lesson about closeness and warmth. The perfect sort of why-question to wonder about as you snuggle down for the night. It is a curious little story with a warm heart, all about the comfort of staying close together.

It sends a child off to sleep with a warm and cosy thought to hold: that being close to the ones you love is its very own kind of magic against the cold.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐳

A bedtime adventure for children about courage that has nothing to do with size. Disaster strikes Tournebois: one night, for no reason at all that anyone can see, Pistache begins to shrink. Smaller and smaller and smaller he goes, until he fits entirely inside Leo's coat pocket! A pocket-sized dragon, now that is something the whole kingdom has never, ever seen before.

What follows is a whole night packed with twists, surprises, and narrow escapes, in which this minuscule little dragon proves something very important indeed. Your size means nothing at all when you carry great big courage inside your heart. Tiny as he now is, Pistache slips through narrow gaps and squeezes into places that no one else could ever reach, and he saves the day more than once before the sun comes up. From up high in Leo's pocket, the whole world looks enormous, and yet brave little Pistache is not afraid for long.

By the time morning arrives, everyone in Tournebois sees Pistache differently, and best of all, Pistache finally sees himself differently too. He learns that being small is not the same thing as being weak, and that what truly counts is always what is on the inside. Where being big might have failed, being tiny turns out to be the very thing that saves the day.

This is a lively, encouraging adventure about believing in yourself, just right for children who sometimes feel far too small next to everyone else. It hands a little one a quiet bit of confidence to carry off into the night. It is the perfect tale for any child who has ever wished they were just a little bit bigger.

It is the kind of story that leaves a child standing a little taller on the inside, sure that their own courage matters just as much as anyone else's, whatever their size.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a long drive. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can drift off calmly. 🐉

A funny bedtime story for kids about big ideas and glorious flops. Cassie the cowgirl has had another one of her brilliant ideas, and when Cassie has a brilliant idea, all of Cactus-Ville had better hold on tight to their hats. Today, she is one hundred percent, absolutely certain that she can lasso a big fluffy cloud right out of the wide blue sky.

What follows is a whole long day of gloriously hilarious chaos, of swinging and missing, leaping and tumbling, because clouds, as everybody well knows, do not let themselves be roped quite so easily. Throw after throw sails straight up into the thin air, the lasso loops itself around nothing at all, and Cassie ends up flat on her back in the dust more than once. But oh, what marvellous fun it is just to have tried. She gathers her rope, plants her boots in the dust, and gives it her very best, most determined throw.

By the time the sun goes down, not a single cloud has been caught, and yet nobody in the whole town could possibly call the day a failure, because it was bursting with laughter from the very first throw right through to the very last. Not one of her wild schemes actually works, but the whole town laughs along with her every single time.

This is a funny, feel-good story about having great big ideas and laughing your boots clean off when they happen to flop. It teaches a child, ever so gently, that it is perfectly all right to get things wrong, as long as you had a wonderful time trying. It is a feel-good little tale that celebrates trying boldly, even when things go gloriously sideways.

It is the kind of cheerful story that takes the sting clean out of mistakes and leaves a little one smiling, ready to rest after a long day of big dreams.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or in the car. And even after all that giggling, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone settle before the night. 🤠

A bedtime story for kids about stormy nights and big scary noises. Boom! Outside the tree-house, the thunder rumbles and the whole bedroom seems to tremble with every clap. The window rattles, the rain drums on the leaves, and Noisette pulls the covers up high, makes herself very small, and feels her heart thump along with the storm. On nights like these, maybe your child feels just as little.

Then Papa Bear comes in, sits down close, and shares his great secret for taming the storm. You plant your paws firmly on the ground, like a mountain that nothing in the world can knock over. You catch the big boom right in your tummy. And then you breathe it all the way back out, slow and steady, until it rolls away over the hills. Noisette tries it once, then again, and feels a little braver each time.

Bit by bit, the fear turns into a quiet kind of courage. The thunder is still there, still loud, but it becomes just a big noise that cannot actually reach her, safe and warm inside the tree-house. Noisette even starts to count the slow seconds between the rumbles, turning the storm into something that feels almost like a game. She pictures herself rooted to the spot, steady and unshakeable, and slowly the trembling in her paws begins to ease.

It is the perfect soothing story for thundery evenings, and your child comes away with a simple, repeatable trick to feel safe on their own: stand steady, take one deep breath, and let the worry roll on past like the clouds in the sky. It is a calm and practical way to help a child feel a little more in charge of their own worries.

More than anything, it gently reminds a little one that storms always pass in the end, that the rain softens, the booms fade, and morning comes back bright and calm. A reassuring sleep story to keep close for the next loud, blustery night.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, comforting at bedtime, during a real storm, or anytime a little heart needs to settle. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift peacefully back to sleep. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about the tiny, secret world all around us. When night falls over the garden and everything goes still and quiet, where on earth do all the butterflies go to hide themselves away and sleep? That is the question buzzing softly around the minds of Marin and Plume tonight, as they sit together aboard the Boat-Cabin watching the day slowly fade away.

So begins a gentle little investigation, from flower to leaf to single blade of grass, as the two friends tiptoe quietly about to discover just where the very tiniest folk of the garden tuck themselves safely away for the night. And as they search, a soft and sleepy thought begins to settle over them both: perhaps, just like the butterflies, it is very nearly time to fold up your own wings and rest. The whole garden, it seems, is quietly getting ready for bed, each tiny creature finding its own snug little hideaway. They peek beneath leaves and behind petals, careful not to disturb a single sleeping little wing. The longer they search, the more snug little sleepers they find, each one tucked safely away for the night.

Marin learns that the whole garden has its own quiet bedtime, just like he does. Every small creature finds its own safe little corner to curl up in, and going to sleep, it turns out, is simply what the world itself does when night arrives.

This is a wonder-filled discovery story about the miniature world living right under our noses, made for watching nature closely and slipping softly off toward sleep. It is a gentle, drowsy little story that turns watching nature into a soft path toward sleep.

It is the kind of calm, drowsy story that helps a child feel part of something much bigger, settling down for the night along with the whole sleepy garden.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or nap time, at home or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🐳

A funny bedtime story for kids, and a deliciously sticky mystery. Disaster has struck Cactus-Ville. The big jar of strawberry jam, the prized one set carefully aside for the famous Sunday toast contest, has vanished clean off the saloon shelf. All that is left behind is a sad, jar-shaped gap in the dust.

Cassie pulls on her deputy sheriff's hat and sets out to crack the stickiest, most finger-licking case in all the Wild West. She follows the trail of clues, and a few telltale crumbs, from one wide-eyed suspect to the next, questioning the whole town as she goes, until at long last she corners a culprit who is covered in strawberry jam from one ear right round to the other. Each suspect she questions looks more and more guilty, and the sticky clues only pile higher and higher. The whole town gets swept up in the search, and the stickiest clues lead her closer and closer to the truth. From the saloon to the stables, no corner of town is safe from Deputy Cassie and her sticky investigation.

It is a whodunit with plenty of giggles and not a single cross word spoken. The mystery is solved with a big grin, the guilty party is met with a warm laugh rather than a scolding, and everyone happily agrees the jam was probably going to be shared around anyway.

This is a story bubbling right over with humour and gleeful little mischief, just right for a laugh before bed. A real cowboy mystery, served up in a soft and giggly version made especially for little ones. It is a light and giggly little mystery, solved with good humour rather than any cross words.

Light and playful from the first clue to the last, it is the perfect way to end the day with a chuckle and then drift gently off toward sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, fun to share at bedtime or in the car. And even when you are laughing hard, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone wind down before the night. 🤠

A bedtime adventure for kids about empathy and big hearts. The rivers are spilling over their banks all around Tournebois, the green meadows are flooding, and nobody can work out why. Leo and Pistache decide to follow the rushing water all the way up into the high mountains, and there, at last, they discover the cause of all the commotion. High above them, an enormous giant is sitting and crying great big tears.

Most people would have turned and fled at the very sight of such a colossus. But our two heroes do exactly the opposite. They climb closer, they sit down beside him, they listen carefully, and they gently try to comfort him and find out what is making him so terribly sad. Because even the very biggest of all sometimes carry a heavy sorrow they need to share with someone. They do not flinch or run, even though the giant towers high above them like a moving mountain.

Once the giant has someone who is truly willing to listen, his tears begin to slow, his great booming sobs quiet down, and far below in the valley, the swollen rivers start to settle back into their beds. A little bit of kindness, it turns out, was all it took to calm the whole valley. The valley itself seems to sigh with relief, the floods draining away as the giant's heart grows lighter.

This is a moving adventure about empathy and really listening to other people, the kind that teaches a child to reach out a hand rather than run away from someone who seems frightening. Tender and reassuring for the end of the day. It is the kind of adventure that makes a child a little braver, and a great deal kinder.

It gently reminds a little one that everyone, no matter how big or how small, can feel sad sometimes, and that simply being there for someone is a quiet and powerful kind of magic.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, nice to listen to at bedtime or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can wind down peacefully. 🐉

A soothing bedtime story for children about saying goodbye in the morning. Every single day at the gate to the clearing, it is the same little pang. It is time to say goodbye to Mama, and that one moment squeezes Noisette's heart tight and makes her bottom lip wobble. Letting go of Mama's paw is the hardest part of the whole day.

So Mama leans right down and shares a piece of magic made just for her. She presses a soft kiss into the middle of Noisette's paw, and Noisette folds it up nice and tight to keep it safe and warm all day long. Whenever her heart starts to ache, she only has to press her paw to her cheek, and the kiss comes back out, still warm. And no matter what, Mama always, always comes back at the end of the day. It is the simplest little trick, and yet it carries all the warmth of home in a single, secret kiss.

Armed with her secret pocket kiss, Noisette finds that she can face the whole day after all. The goodbye still stings a little, the way goodbyes always do, but now she carries a small piece of home and a piece of Mama's love right there with her, ready whenever she needs it most. She keeps her paw curled up tight, like a small and precious secret, all the way through her day.

This is a reassuring story for separation worries, for mornings at school, at nursery, or at the childminder's. It is lovely to listen to together so a child can head off into their day, or settle into the evening, with a much lighter heart. It speaks straight to that wobbly morning feeling, and softens it with a little ritual to share.

The little pocket-kiss trick is one that families can borrow for real life, a small and tender ritual that turns a hard goodbye into something a child can hold on to and carry with them.

A bedtime adventure for children, full of courage and friendship. In the kingdom of Tournebois, Leo the little knight and Pistache the timid little dragon have an important mission: to cross a great bridge so they can carry on with their quest. There is just one small problem standing in their way. This particular bridge is afraid of heights.

There is simply no crossing it while it shivers and sways with fear beneath their feet. So instead of forcing their way over, our two heroes decide to do something far kinder. They stop, they sit down, and they talk to the trembling bridge. They reassure it, they calm it down, and they help it find its confidence again, exactly the way you would comfort a good friend who is frightened.

Bit by bit, with patience and gentle words and a few slow, steady breaths, the bridge stops shaking. It stands tall and firm at last, proud to carry the two friends safely across to the other side. Leo and Pistache cheer it on warmly as they go, and the old bridge fairly beams beneath their feet. The two friends never once lose their patience, treating the frightened bridge with the same care they would give each other.

This is a warm-hearted adventure about courage, kindness, and teamwork, the kind that quietly shows a child that you are always stronger when you face the scary things together rather than alone. Just right for dreaming of brave and gentle deeds before closing your eyes. It is a quietly powerful lesson in kindness, told as a real and gripping little adventure.

It also carries a lovely message for any worried little one: even something that looks big and solid can feel afraid sometimes, and a few patient, kind words can help it find its footing again.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely to listen to at bedtime or on a car trip. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can finish the day feeling calm. 🐉

A bedtime story for children about the little worries that grow big at night. It is time for sleep in the tree-house, and something is terribly wrong. Calinou, Noisette's favourite cuddly rabbit, has gone missing. No soft little ear to hold, no familiar friend to tuck under her chin, no warm shape to fall asleep against. How on earth do you close your eyes without him? Noisette searches under the bed, behind the cushions, all through her round little room, and still no Calinou.

Just as the tears start to well up and the evening threatens to turn into a real drama, Papa Bear sits down beside her on the edge of the bed and shares a simple secret. A warm hug and a little bit of imagination are often enough to soothe even the biggest worries of the night. Together, they discover that you can build a backup cuddly inside your head: picture his long floppy ears, his soft grey fur, the exact way he feels in your arms, and then hold him every bit as tightly as the real one.

Little by little, the panic melts away and Noisette's breathing slows back down. She realises that what made Calinou so special was never only his soft fur. It was the comfort and the love she poured into him every single night, and that kind of comfort she can always find again, even with empty paws.

This is a reassuring sleep story, made for the bedtime routine and for those all-too-real evenings when the cuddly is nowhere to be found. It gently takes the drama out of a lost doudou and helps a little one find their smile again before the lights go out.

It is the kind of calm story that hands a child a small tool of their very own: a hug, a deep breath, and a happy picture to hold on to whenever something feels missing in the night. A soft, soothing way to settle a worried little heart.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, gentle to listen to at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car on the way home. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about the secrets of the deep sea. Aboard the cosy little Boat-Cabin, Marin finds himself wondering about something truly enormous: why do whales sing their deep, mysterious songs, all the way down at the very bottom of the wide ocean? Together with his feathered friend Plume the bird, he decides to slip beneath the waves and find out for himself.

Down they go, deeper and deeper into the blue, and as they sink slowly into the cool, quiet water our two explorers listen with all of their might. Bit by bit, they begin to uncover the secret of that haunting song, the one that travels for miles and miles and miles through the sea. It is a real little lesson in nature, told ever so gently and absolutely brimming with wonder. The deeper they go, the more wonders they find, and the whale's song wraps around them like something almost magical.

Along the way, Marin discovers that the ocean is alive with messages and music that we humans almost never get to hear, and that the world is far bigger, far stranger, and far more marvellous than it ever looks from up on the surface. The song hums all around them in the deep, and the pair listen on, spellbound, until they understand.

This is a story made for sparking wonder and helping a child understand the world, the kind that answers the great big "why" questions that curious little ones so love to ask. Just right for the calm moment before nap time or sleep. It is a calm and curious little story for every child who loves to ask how the world really works.

It leaves a child with a head full of gentle pictures, of great whales gliding and singing in the dark water, the perfect daydream to carry along into the quiet of bedtime.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely to listen to at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐳

A funny bedtime story for kids, straight out of the Wild West. In the dusty little town of Cactus-Ville, everybody dreams of being the very fastest. Every cowboy and every cowgirl, that is, except Cassie and her trusty pony Tornado, officially the slowest pair in the whole West, and, would you believe it, really rather proud of the fact.

Instead of getting cross about all the teasing, Cassie has one of her famously brilliant ideas. She will go and organise THE slowest race the world has ever seen, the one and only race where the very last one to cross the line is crowned the grand winner, and where dawdling along as slowly as you can is the whole entire point. And there, well, Tornado suddenly becomes absolutely, utterly unbeatable.

The whole town turns out for the great slow-motion showdown, and the giggles come thick and fast as the racers do their level best to go absolutely nowhere in a hurry. Hooves barely shuffle, tails flick lazily in the sun, and Tornado plods along toward glory at his own happy pace. It is the silliest, slowest, most joyful contest Cactus-Ville has ever held. Tornado has finally found the one race in the world that he was born to win, and he savours every slow step of it.

This is a story that sparkles with humour and good cheer, made for a proper belly laugh. And it slips in, ever so quietly, a lovely little truth: you do not have to be the fastest or the strongest to be the very best at being yourself. Behind every giggle, there is a warm and reassuring idea: that the things that make you different can be your very best strengths.

It is the kind of warm, funny tale that lets a child laugh right out loud and then settle, content in the knowledge that their own pace is exactly the right one.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely to listen to at bedtime or on the way home in the car. And even after a good laugh, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone settle before the night. 🤠

In the Cosy Forest, the day is winding down and little Noisette the bear cub is tucked up in her round bedroom, high in the family tree-house. But tonight, when she peeks through her little porthole window, the moon has gone dark. There is no soft glow left to keep the shadows company, and the whole forest feels a touch too quiet. So Noisette gathers up her courage, slips out of her warm bed, and sets off through the sleeping woods to find the moon and bring it back.

With a tummy that feels a little tight, she walks between the tall, quiet trees, listening to the small sounds of the night, the creak of a branch, the hoot of an owl, the soft rustle of leaves overhead. Every shape looks bigger in the dark, and more than once she stops to take a breath before carrying on. Step by step, paw after paw, she keeps going anyway, because the moon is counting on her.

Along the way Noisette discovers something every child needs to hear at bedtime: you can be brave even when a part of you still feels a little bit scared. Courage is not about having no fear at all. It is about taking that next gentle step, holding someone's paw, or simply trusting that the dark is not as frightening as it first seems.

This is a tender sleep story, written to soothe the fear of the dark and turn a worried feeling into something softer and calmer. By the end of her walk, Noisette understands that the night is simply the world resting, the same way she soon will, and that the moon always finds its way home, just like she does.

At the very end, just like every evening in the Cosy Forest, Noisette takes three big breaths, her three magic breaths, and your child is warmly invited to breathe slowly along with her, to relax their body and let their eyelids grow heavy. It is a small, calming ritual that helps a little one let go of the day and ease toward sleep.

A screen-free audio story for toddlers from age 2, lovely to share at bedtime, in the car, or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift toward sleep without anyone being startled awake. 🌙

That morning, something very, very important is happening. On the table, a bowl of cereal. On the chair, a brand-new little backpack, a bit too big, holding a tissue, a water bottle and a small piece of paper with a sun drawn on it. Because today, for little Lila, is her very first day of school. And in front of the big blue gate, her heart gives little hops: she'd much rather stay home, with Mum.

«Home will still be here tonight, it isn't going anywhere,» Mum whispers gently. «And this morning, someone is waiting for you: a whole school, with a teacher, friends, and a coat hook all your own, with your sun drawing on it.» So, hand in hand, quietly singing the morning song, Lila steps through the big blue gate, tummy a little tight.

On the other side, there is Miss Lou, all smiles, a hook with her name on it, games, and soon a little owl cuddly in the reading corner, Doudou-Hibou, who watches over things gently. Little by little, the morning knot loosens, and Lila discovers that you can feel good, even far from home, even when Mum isn't right beside you.

This story gently accompanies one of the biggest moments for little ones: the first separation, the first day of school or nursery. It reassures your child with one very simple, essential idea: Mum always comes back, school is just a moment in between, and you can be well looked after there and even have a lovely time.

And when, at day's end, Mum finally reappears at the big blue gate, Lila understands that the day has passed and everything turned out fine. The story then settles gently down, reassuring and warm, right in time to snuggle up and close your eyes, ready for a new morning.

Mum never tells Lila that her fear is silly, and she doesn't force her either. She names what reassures, she sings the song, she promises to come back, and she keeps her promise: taking a little one's big emotion seriously, without brushing it aside, is the whole spirit of Tilibou bedtime stories. And on the coat rack, Lila's little sun shines all day long, waiting for her return.

A gentle, screen-free school story for toddlers from age 2, perfect for easing back-to-school nerves, lovely to share at bedtime, in the car, or at nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift toward sleep without anyone being startled awake. 🎒

A bedtime adventure for kids about the freedom to be yourself. What if a dragon dreamed, more than anything else in the whole wide world, of becoming a real knight? Standing right in front of the sign-up board at Tournebois, Pistache gazes up and dreams out loud of having his very own shining suit of armour and his very own gleaming sword.

With Leo right there beside him, championing him at every single step of the way, Pistache slowly comes to understand something freeing and important. You can chase even your very biggest dreams while staying exactly, completely who you already are. You never have to change your scales, hide away your wings, or turn into somebody else just to be a hero. Leo never asks his friend to be anything other than himself, and that makes all the difference in the world. The dream is a big one for a little dragon, but Pistache holds on to it with all his heart. Standing before that great board of names, he imagines his own one written proudly among the knights of Tournebois.

By the end of it all, Pistache stands tall and proud, a dragon and a knight both at once, living proof that following your dreams and being true to yourself are not opposites at all. They fit together beautifully, side by side, just as they are.

This is a heartfelt adventure about friendship, big dreams, and the freedom to be yourself, and it brings the adventures of Leo and Pistache to a lovely close. A warm, hopeful note to end any day on. It is a hopeful, heartfelt tale about chasing your dreams without ever losing who you are.

It gently reminds a little one that they are already wonderful exactly as they are, and that the very best dreams are the ones you chase as your own true self.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a car trip. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can finish the day feeling calm. 🐉

A tender bedtime story for kids about learning to share. "That's MY shovel!" Down by the brook, Noisette has absolutely no wish to lend out her brand-new shovel, the lovely one Papa Bear carved especially for her. And when you are little, sharing your very favourite thing in the world really is not easy at all. She holds it tight against her chest and shakes her head.

But as the afternoon goes on and her friends gather round to dig and build together, something quietly starts to shift inside her. Noisette slowly discovers that lending is not at all the same as giving away. The shovel always comes back to her own paws at the end, and the fun, well, the fun only multiplies when everyone joins in and the whole riverbank turns into one big, busy building site. The more paws that join in, the bigger and grander the games by the water become, and Noisette finds she does not mind sharing one bit.

By the time the sun dips low and golden over the water, the bank is dotted with little sandcastles built by many paws, and Noisette can see for herself that a shared game is far more fun than a lonely one ever was. Taking turns, it turns out, is its own special kind of magic. By the end, sharing has stopped feeling like losing and started to feel like the best part of the whole day.

This is a gentle little story about sharing and taking turns, perfect for winding down at the end of the day. It walks alongside a child as they learn, with no pressure and no telling-off, that everyone gets a turn and that being generous feels good inside. There is no scolding here, only the gentle discovery that giving and lending can feel just as good as keeping.

It is the kind of warm, low-key story that plants a small, kind idea without ever once lecturing, leaving a little one calm, content, and ready for sleep.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, lovely at bedtime or nap time. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🌙

A bedtime story for curious kids about day, night, and our great spinning Earth. When the sun slips slowly down below the hills at the very end of the day, where exactly does it go to lay its head and sleep? From the deck of the Boat-Cabin, Marin and Plume make up their minds to follow its warm golden trail, all the way to the far side of the world.

Over the course of this great big journey, our two explorers come to understand something wonderfully reassuring. The sun does not go out at night, not at all, and it is never truly gone away. It simply travels onward to say a bright good morning to the children on the other side of the Earth, and it will come back round to your own window again, faithfully, every single tomorrow morning. The further they follow that golden trail, the more they understand how the whole wide world takes its turns. They sail on after that golden glow, picturing all the children far away just waking up to its light. On and on the golden glow leads them, around the curve of the world, toward a brand new morning somewhere far away.

Marin learns that night-time is not the sun disappearing for good, but only our great big planet gently turning, and that morning is always, always on its way back, no matter how dark and deep the night may sometimes feel.

This is a gentle, soothing story about the day, the night, and the slow, steady turning of our planet, made to reassure a child and help them close their eyes feeling safe and sure. It is a soothing little story about the rhythm of day and night, made to settle a worried mind.

It is the perfect story for any little one who finds the dark a little worrying, a calm and steady reminder that the light always comes back again in the end.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can drift off peacefully. 🐳
