BEDTIME STORIES
Stairwell 3/2
Cuddling up under our blankets and listening to bedtime stories is one of our favourite activities during childhood. Apart from fostering a bond between parents and children during these storytelling sessions, these imaginative bedtime stories also allow children to develop their creative and imaginative skills. Ranging from nursery rhymes, fables and fairytales to classic novels for all ages, some of these familiar stories have their origins dating back to the 1600s.
In this Bedtime Stories collection, the selection of toys will introduce some of the classic literature, revisit famous fables from centuries ago, as well as exploring reinvented stories that have been adapted from books to screen.
