There’s nothing better than being cosy and warm and ready for bed! This month, we’re getting all snuggly and discovering what makes a great bedtime. 

In How to Make a Bedtime by Meg Mckinlay and Karen Blair, we follow along as the characters get ready for bed and follow their nightly routines – a routine is when you do the same things in the same order each day, so you know what to expect and there are no surprises. 

We hope you enjoy this sweet story and, who knows, maybe this book will become a part of your own bedtime routine! 

Happy reading, 

Ruby and the WellRead team x 

Extra things to think about and do: 

• What kinds of things do you do before bed? How many things do you have in common with the child in the story?
  
  
• What is your favourite part of your own bedtime routine? Ours is getting into fluffy pyjamas and wriggling into bed! 

• What are some of your favourite stories to read before bed?
  
  
• A friendly bear is a part of the bedtime routine in this story – can you spot where he sleeps?
