65. Dream Learners – Animated bedtime story experiences

As nominated by Lauren Porter of Sophie’s Nursery.

It’s a sad reality that only 1 in 5 children get a bedtime story on a regular basis and, although children are traditionally taught in the daytime, knowledge and fact-based learning is most effective in the 90 minutes before sleep. The home has three times more impact on a child’s learning outcomes than school but supplementary learning can be expensive. Getting the learning right at home, is key to a child’s future but often parents don’t have the tools or knowledge to be able to be effective teachers themselves.

This is why Dream Learners’ stories are so beneficial for everyone in the family. After extensive research they are developing a multi-platform library of magical, animated story experiences that broadly cover the curriculum and are optimised for safe use in the 90 minutes before bedtime – the best time to learn. The magical learning stories and accompanying resources are aimed at children aged 3 – 9 to use on their own, or for maximum learning impact, with a parent. Dream Learners are constantly expanding their library of stories and resources.
