Who’s sleeping inside? Lift the flap and find out! Baby’s First Bedtime takes little ones on a gentle tour of animal homes at nighttime — peeking into a kennel to find a dog and her puppies, a birdhouse to find a bird and his chicks, a hutch to find a rabbit and her kits, and a duck house to find a duck and his ducklings. A cozy, curiosity-driven introduction to animals, families, and bedtime routines.

Format: Lift-the-flap board book with sturdy flaps sized for little hands.

Why Babies Love It

The lift-the-flap mechanic turns every page into a mini discovery moment — the anticipation of what’s hiding inside each animal home keeps little ones engaged and eager to turn the page. Sturdy flaps are designed specifically for the youngest readers to open and close independently, building confidence and fine motor skills through play.

Early Learning

Animal names, family vocabulary (puppies, chicks, kits, ducklings), and the concept of home and belonging are all introduced naturally through the story. A gentle bedtime narrative makes this a natural addition to any wind-down routine from the earliest months.
