Story Time: Reading Together

Make reading a shared family ritual with nearly 200 illustrated stories. Read together, practise independently, or listen to recordings from loved ones.

Let reading together become a moment to share.

Story Time is a children’s story and read-aloud app for families. Choose from nearly 200 illustrated stories for bedtime, after school, travelling or a short reading break. Read aloud together, let an early reader practise independently, or listen to recordings made by parents, grandparents and other loved ones.

Why families choose Story Time:

• Bedtime stories, imaginative adventures, quick reads and educational tales • Stories for different interests, goals and developmental stages • In-story illustrations that help children follow along and stay engaged • Family voice recordings for comfort, connection and reading support • Vocabulary, short quizzes and story takeaways that encourage understanding • Age-appropriate story lengths, themes, vocabulary, definitions, questions, morals and difficulty • Suggested age ranges, from early listening to independent reading • A personal bookcase for favourite stories to revisit or save for later • No ads, and we do not sell your data

Read together, even when you’re apart

Parents, grandparents and other family members can record stories in their own voices. Children can listen whenever they miss someone, need help following the text or simply want a familiar voice at story time.

Learning that still feels fun

Story Time supports learning without turning reading into homework. Children can listen, read together with someone they trust or practise independently at a level that feels manageable and enjoyable.

Every story is created for a specific age range, with its length, language and learning features adjusted accordingly. Vocabulary words and child-friendly definitions support language development, while age-appropriate questions and answers encourage comprehension and conversation. Themes, morals and story takeaways are also considered carefully, so younger children, developing readers and more confident readers each receive an experience suited to them.

Created with care

Our stories are conceived and curated by real people. AI supports part of the writing process, but every story is reviewed by humans before publication and revisited when needed. We continue improving both our stories and the app as we learn, receive feedback and grow.

Story Time is made by Roek IT, a small family-run software company in the Netherlands. We build products we would confidently use with our own family, with attention to safety, accessibility, reliability and long-term trust.

Read every day for free

Read or listen to a story of your choice each day for free. Story Time is always ad-free, and we do not sell your data. For unlimited access to the growing library, choose a monthly, quarterly, yearly or lifetime Library Pass.
