Description

A bedtime story for curious kids about the quiet magic of nature. Inside the warm, busy hive, the bees suddenly all start to dance, twirling and wiggling round and round and round again. Why on earth all these funny little steps and turns and shimmies? Marin and Plume are quite determined to get to the very bottom of this small and curious little mystery.

Following the dance up close, our two explorers make a truly delightful discovery. The bees are actually talking to one another as they dance, using their wiggles and their turns to show all the others exactly which way to fly to find the loveliest, most flower-filled spots of all. Everyone, it turns out, has their very own special way of saying "it is this way, come and follow me." The closer they watch the dancing, the more they realise just how much the busy little bees have to say. They trace each loop and wiggle of the dance, slowly piecing together what the bees are trying to say. Round and round the busy dancers go, and slowly the whole clever message starts to make perfect sense.

Marin is utterly amazed to learn that even the very tiniest of creatures have a whole language all their own, and that nature is full to the brim with quiet, clever little conversations happening all around us, if only we stop and take the time to notice them.

This is a wonder-filled discovery story about the gentle, hidden magic of the natural world, the kind that opens the eyes of curious little ones wide. Perfect for the calm moment of the day. It is a wonder-filled little story about the secret conversations happening quietly all around us.

It leaves a child with a soft sense of wonder at the secret world all around them, a lovely thought to turn over quietly on the way to sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🐳

About Tilibou: Bedtime Stories for Kids

Welcome to Tilibou, a premium audio storytelling label for children aged 2 to 5: gentle bedtime stories crafted to accompany the moment of sleep, help little ones calm down and drift off peacefully. Every episode is a small evening ritual, to listen to together, tucked up in bed.

Tilibou's promise is simple: stories to fall asleep, dream and grow. The ending is always entirely spoken, in a soft fade, with no music, so the child falling asleep is never woken at the most delicate moment. No advertising, no screens and no collection of children's data: an experience designed for families, respectful and reassuring.

Each story lasts 10 to 20 minutes and is told with a warm, gentle voice, wrapped in discreet soundscapes, such as the forest at night, rain, a stream or a crackling fire, that cradle the tale without ever covering it. The stories are about emotions, little fears to tame, courage, friendship and wonder, with simple words and poetic images suited to the very young.

The world of Tilibou unfolds across several universes, each with its own atmosphere and characters. There is Noisette, the little bear of the evening, who helps name emotions and get ready for sleep, from age 2. There are Léo and Pistache, a small knight and his slightly scaredy dragon, who set off on adventures in search of courage. There are Cassie and Tornado, an energetic cowgirl and her placid pony, for the funniest stories of the West. There are Marin and Plume, a boy and his seagull who explore nature at a child's eye level. There is Tom the Pirate and his crew, sailing from island to island with gentle, never-scary adventures. And there are the seasonal collections: Christmas stories, funny and not-at-all-scary Halloween stories, and preschool stories to support the first steps at school.

Tilibou comes in several languages, including English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian: the same gentleness and the same characters, to fall asleep anywhere in the world. A little creature of the night, Tilibou, introduces and accompanies every story with its star-shaped lantern.

Whether for the bedtime ritual, a calm moment in the afternoon or a long journey, Tilibou offers parents a precious ally: beautiful stories to listen to, ad-free and screen-free, that help children relax, dream and fall asleep with a smile. Good night and sweet dreams with Tilibou.
