For Christian parents of little ones
A nightly read-aloud story where your own child is the hero, learning one Fruit of the Spirit a week. No tablets. No 30-minute devotional. Just a few minutes that quietly grow their soul.
7 nights free · Cancel anytime · ESV in context · Theologically reviewed
You already know the nights matter
By bedtime you're spent. You want to plant faith, but most nights it looks like:
Devotional books that drag on for a wiggly three-year-old (and feel dry to you).
"Just one more show" because you're exhausted, with a little guilt after.
"Be kind. Be patient." said at lights-out, never really landing.
A quiet worry: am I doing enough to shape their heart before the world gets loud?
It shouldn't take a seminary degree or a nightly fight to plant one seed of faith at night.
Here's the shift
So we made your child the hero. In every story, they hit the hard moment and choose love, joy, peace, patience, one Fruit of the Spirit at a time. Virtue gets caught, not taught.
One chapter, every night
One short, complete story with your child (and siblings) named as the heroes. You read it aloud. That's the whole ask.
A single question you can ask in thirty seconds, and a short prayer your little one can echo. Grace first, behavior second.
Each week rests on one Fruit of the Spirit with a memory verse in its true context. Seven nights, and one more seed is planted.
What changes in your home
The world your child steps into
Pim is the gentle garden-keeper who shows the children how, then lets them choose, he never does it for them. The Sleepyheads are tiny seedlings that grow as they fall asleep, one little dream at a time. And your children are the little keepers, heroes of every story, learning to love by doing.
Why you can trust us with their hearts
"I'm a dad of two (2 and a half, and 1). I went looking for something at bedtime that was true, warm, and short enough for real life. I couldn't find it, so I built it.
Every chapter is written for a real child's pillow. Scripture is quoted from the ESV and kept in its true context. Grace comes before behavior, always. Nothing ships until it passes a theology and craft review. The care I want for my own two is the care every story gets, for every family."
Jake, founder of Seed & Slumber

Start free Love WeekOur bedtime promise
If it doesn't earn its place at bedtime, don't keep it. Read the whole Love Week free. If your kids don't ask for it again, cancel in two taps and pay nothing. We'd rather lose the sale than crowd your child's pillow with something they don't love.
Little ones and up. Stories are matched to your child's age, so they start short and warm for toddlers and grow richer as your child does. You choose the age band, and it grows with them.
About five to ten minutes. One short chapter you read aloud, plus a single question and a short prayer if you'd like them. That's the whole ask.
Yes. Multiple children are supported, up to a family of four. Siblings co-star by first name and nickname, so the story belongs to your whole little crew, not a generic "you."
Historic, mere-Christian orthodoxy. Scripture is quoted from the ESV and kept in its true context, never twisted to fit a moral. Grace comes before behavior, and nothing ships until it passes a theology and craft review.
The first Love Week is free, and you can cancel anytime in two taps. Keep it only if it earns its place at bedtime.
Seven nights free. One story at a time.
