What are Bedtime Stories?

It is a new initiative offered by EdCity to provide quality educational bedtime stories for parents to accompany children to spend the bedtime moment.

The animated stories aim to

  1. Enhance parent-child relationships through reading together
  2. Instil values into children with a lightweight method by engaging plots and graphics in the animated stories
  3. Provide an English language environment for students to learn English

Features of the stories

  1. Professionally curated content with positive value, with pause for reflection
  2. Specially designed images and animation suitable for children bedtime stories
  3. Vocal speed is specially paced for ease of listening
  4. Difficult words are explained in the videos to increase children vocabulary list through leisure reading

Stories were created with AI-assistance in four themes: Kindness counts, Adventure time, Friends and family, and The world around us.

Target

All Primary Students

Schedule

Two bedtime stories will be launched weekly. Stay tuned!
