Bedtime, rooted in the Psalms
A bedtime story with your child's name in it
Tell Tiny Psalms who's listening and what's on their heart tonight — it narrates a calming, Christ-centered story made just for them, ending with a whispered prayer and three Bible promises. Phone face-down. Screen dark. Little heart at peace.

How it works
Three small steps to a peaceful night
Tell it who's listening
Your child's name and age. Each story is tuned to them — simpler and shorter at 4, more thoughtful at 10.
“Willow, age 6”Share tonight's heart
Pick a theme — peace, courage, sleep without fear, gratitude — and add a note about the actual moment, if there is one.
“Oscar starts kindergarten tomorrow and is nervous”Lights out, listen
A warm voice narrates the story, then a whispered prayer with their name, then three Bible promises to fall asleep holding.
“God stays with me at school.” — Joshua 1:9Free guides for parents
The Psalms, in kid words
Every psalm below explained for children — with a bedtime prayer to borrow tonight.
Why families love it
Faith in the last thought of the day
Names the worry, gently
Eight themes cover most nights — Peace, Courage, Sleep without fear, Gratitude, Jesus is with me, Adventure, School worries, Forgiveness. Your note about tonight is translated into words a child can hear: “goodbyes can feel hard sometimes.”
Audio-first, screen dark
Built to cut bedtime screen time to zero: the phone goes face-down and a warm, unhurried voice carries the story, the whispered prayer, and the promises. Nothing to watch — that's the point.
A library of their own
Every story is saved under your child's name — because the story about the first day of school gets requested again. Replays are free, and always word-for-word the same.
Honest about Scripture
The app never invents a Bible verse. Every story leans on real Scripture, and each ends with three promises that carry their own reference — small enough for a child to keep.
Made for real families
- Ages 3–12, with tone tuned to the age you set
- Up to five child profiles — each with their own library
- Stories & narration in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian

Questions parents ask
Frequently asked questions
What is Tiny Psalms?
A bedtime app for Christian families: you tell it your child's name, age, and what's on their heart tonight, and it narrates a calming, Scripture-rooted audio story made just for them — ending with a whispered prayer and three Bible promises. The screen goes dark while it plays. Learn more
Where can I find free Bible bedtime stories for kids?
Right here — six of them, written out in full and free to read aloud: Jesus calms the storm, Samuel hears his name, Jesus and the children, the lost sheep, creation day by day, and Noah and the rainbow. Each takes about three minutes and ends with a short prayer and three real scripture promises. Learn more
What bedtime prayer should I use for my child's age?
Toddlers (1–3) do best with one or two lines said the same way every night; preschoolers (3–5) with three or four short lines about things they can picture; school-age children (6–12) with a short, honest prayer that names the real worry. Learn more
Is Tiny Psalms free?
Free to download, and your first personalized story is free. A subscription (monthly with a 3-day free trial, or annual) unlocks a new story every night — up to three a day — and up to five child profiles; saved stories replay free. Learn more
Are the Bible verses in the stories real?
Yes — a hard rule built into story creation: the app never invents a Bible verse. Every story leans on real Scripture, and its three closing promises each carry a real reference, like “God stays with me at school” from Joshua 1:9. Learn more
Isn't a bedtime app just more screen time?
Tiny Psalms is audio-first on purpose: phone face-down, screen dark, nothing to watch. The concerns behind screen-time rules are bright light and visual stimulation — a dark-screen audio story is functionally a told story. Learn more
What ages is it for?
Ages 3–12. The age you set tunes each story's length, vocabulary, and tone — shorter and simpler for little ones, more thoughtful for older kids whose worries deserve to be taken seriously. Learn more
How is my child's information handled?
Your child's name and the note you type are used to create that night's story — with the help of carefully instructed artificial intelligence, after a parent consents in-app — and are not shared with third parties for advertising. No ads, no tracking of children. Full details in the privacy policy.
What languages are stories available in?
English, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), French, German, and Italian — stories and narration follow your app language. Learn more
Can it help a child who's scared of the dark?
That's one of its eight themes: “Sleep without fear.” Tell the app what's going on and the story answers the fear gently — God's nearness, never scary images — ending in a whispered prayer with your child's name. Learn more
