Learn with your toddler from A to Z all about bedtime.

This soothing collection of bedtime words and illustrations is chock-full of things that toddlers will recognise as part of their nightly routine. Little ones will enjoy seeing drowsy Dad nodding off in front of the TV or getting cosy with blankies and a big pillow while grandpa reads a bedtime story. There’s also bubbly soap for the bath, a toothbrush for those pearly-whites, fuzzy slippers, and an eye mask. And of course, a hug, a kiss, and a lullaby before everyone drops off for some zzzs.

Another delightful BabyLit alphabet board book featuring Greg Paprocki’s classically retro mid-century art style that’s proven to be a hit with both young children and adults.

Also available:

  • F is for Fairy Tale
  • L is for Love
  • T is for Thankful
  • Y is for Yoga
  • M is for Monsters
