Offline bedtime stories for travel
The bedtime routine is the one thing worth keeping when everything else changes. MoonPage stories play with no wifi — download once and they're there for the plane, the back seat, the hotel, or the night the power drops. No signal, no streaming, no lost calm.
Every story is original and illustrated, read aloud by a narrator or in your own voice, with no ads and no login getting in the way of sleep.
Stories to download before you go
45sample titles from the app — each one plays fully offline once it's on the device.
A Secret in the Night
A night too big to sleep in. One small sound in the garden. Who's out there with their light gone dim?
The Trapped Firefly
One firefly who flew too high. One glass jar with the lid rolled shut. Who's strong enough to roll her free?
The Starry Fish
A fish who lives too deep to have ever seen a star. Everyone says the sky is out of reach. What if someone offers her a lift?
Counting Sheep
Moon up. Stars out. One little lamb wide, wide awake — how many sheep does it take?
The Little Lighthouse
Thick grey fog rolling in off the water. A duckling family lost somewhere out in it. How bright can one little lighthouse shine?
The Moon's Light
Max the little mouse wished he could keep a bit of the night's soft light. Silver moths circled, then drifted toward the moonflower hill — were they showing him the way? What glows at the top, waiting to be carried home?
Hazel's Apple Sleepout
A sleepout under the biggest apple tree in the orchard. Then it gets dark, and Bramble misses his own little bed. What does a big sister do?
The Moon in the Pond
The moon has fallen into the pond, and Dot is going to rescue it. Except — is it really down there at all?
The Midnight Mail
Letters delivered, satchel nearly empty. Then the wind lifts the very last one out into the storm. Does Otto go after it?
Keep the routine on the road
- 1. Download before you leave. Open the stories you want while you have wifi, so they're cached on the device.
- 2. Bring the same book. A familiar story in a strange room is what helps a child settle fastest away from home.
- 3. Use your own voice. A recorded voice version travels with the device, so the comfort is there even when you're not.
- 4. Same order, anywhere. Story, then lights — the routine is what does the work, not the location.
