Islamic bedtime stories for kids
A warm Islamic story is a lovely way to end the day. Once Upon A Crescent has dozens of free stories written and voiced by Mrs. Hashimi, a Muslim elementary school teacher, for preschoolers and young children.
Stories to start with
A simple Islamic bedtime routine
Many families use a story as the quiet moment between brushing teeth and sleep. One easy way to do it:
- Pick one story together, by theme if you like, on the Episodes page.
- Listen with the lights low, on a phone, a tablet or a smart speaker that plays your podcast app.
- Ask one question afterwards. Many episodes have a Parent guide with questions to talk about.
- Finish with your bedtime duas.
The stories also work well in the car, at playdates and in the classroom, so you can use them all day.
