About Us
The Kids Story is a free online library of kids stories in English for children aged 3 to 10. We publish bedtime stories, fairy tales, moral stories, rhyming stories and jokes that parents, grandparents and teachers can read aloud, and that children can enjoy reading on their own.
Why we started
Bedtime reading is one of the simplest ways to help children relax, learn new words and feel close to the people they love. We wanted a place where families could find a calm, safe story in seconds, on any device, without paying or signing up.
What you will find here
- Bedtime stories with a slow, soothing pace and a happy ending.
- Fairy tales and story books full of magic, kindness and courage.
- Stories by age for ages 3–5, 5–8 and 8–10.
- Rhyming stories and jokes that build language skills and make children laugh.
How we create our stories
Every story is written or edited by our team and reviewed for age-appropriate words, gentle themes and a kind message before it is published. Read our editorial policy to learn more.
Free for every family
All stories are free to read. The site is supported by advertising, and we never ask children for personal information.
